22nd Annual Real Men Cook

22nd Annual Real Men Cook

The 22nd Annual Real Men Cook was held on Father’s Day and boy did hundreds turn out! It was a scorcher outside in Atlanta but people filled the Atlantic Civic Center to taste, mingle and be entertained. It was held in a smaller venue this year, so I was unable to sample and taste different chefs food because it was so packed. I did get to taste Chef Keith Kash dishes along with Roger Bobb’s lemon peppered wings. Actually Roger Bob won for his wings they were very tasty! Comedian Don DC Curry was in the house along with Congressmen John Lewis, Conn Jackson,Councilman Kwanza Hall and American Idol Season 5 Contestant Paris Bennett and so many more. Enjoy the pictures and I would like to thank Diane Larche for inviting me out, I had a great time!
