Top chefs to the rescue with Soul of Tohoku

A group of
Japan?s top chefs is calling on cooks around the country to support Tohoku by doing
what they do best -- cooking.

Called the Soul
of Tohoku, the initiative was started by a team of 40 chefs who represented
Japan at the prestigious Worlds of Flavor conference in the United States last
October.

The majority
of the chefs will join forces once again on Tuesday, May 31, to prepare a grand
spread for their fundraising benefit dinner at the ANA InterContinental Hotel.

All the
proceeds will go toward the group?s Kitchen Caravan Cooking Relay project,
which will send chefs in kitchen-equipped vehicles to various locations in
Fukushima, Miyagi, and Iwate prefectures.
