NEW YORK—Burger patties were a’sizzlin‘ and papaya salads were a’stirrin’ at the Celebrate Flatiron Chefs event at Madison Square Park Tuesday.
For Lauren Hirschberg, Craftbar’s chef de cuisine, the event was far from a typical day at work; it was a chance to catch up with his chef buddies, and contribute to the park’s maintenance.
“I think it is a great program to raise money for the park. It’s one of the top three parks that I like—maybe just because I have to walk through here every day,” Hirschberg said.
Although around 1,000 food lovers attended throughout the evening, the tables were not too crowded.
