    Besides Charlie Trotters and Moto having amazing once-in-a-lifetime Guest Chef experiences in their respective kitchens, are there any other restaurants or organizations that have something similar?

    Thank you!

    Hi,

    I've done Moto. I have guest chef certificates for Gabriel's in Highwood and Carlos in Highland Park. I obtained both via a church silent auction.

    Regards,

    I'm fairly certain Gale Gand offers something similar, as well. Not too long ago, my stepmom spent a day in one of her kitchens. I think the day there was a gift, given to her by some friends.

    I have one for Moto, which I too obtained via a charity auction. As a heads-up to anyone who has such a certificate or is planning to get one, the program at Moto has become quite popular. I recently called them to arrange the use of my certificate and the first opening was nine months away.

    I did one at Carlos a couple of years ago and it was a lot of fun. We had a fabulous dinner following that and then grabbed a case of Miller Lite and sat outside in the back yapping with the staff until 1:00 a.m.

    Bidding now going on for Chef for a Day at Moto. Currently at $100 and I'd be delighted if no one tops that :wink:, but the Campaign for Better Health Care is a great group and I suspect there are people here who are interested. http://www.cbhconline.org/am-2010/silent-auction/
