Chef Sanjeev Kapoor spent all day at New Delhi Restaurant signing cookbooks, answering questions and posing for photos. He also helped us raise over $10,000 for Compassionate Chefs!
The San Francisco Mayor’s office awarded him a certificate of appreciation for his help on behalf of Compassionate Chefs. Not bad for one weekend.
Check out the pictures and relive the good times.

Compassionate Chefs Cafe Fundraiser, August 2011
Twice every year, New Delhi Restaurant transforms into “Compassionate Chefs Cafe”- a unique space of giving and selfless service. At this event, you won’t receive a bill for the food you eat, because it is offered to you purely as a gift, with great love. In turn, you can “pay it forward” – whatever amount you wish – offering a gift of your own will go directly towards youth enrichment programs supported by Compassionate Chefs Cafe.
Our August 2011 fundraiser was another lovely evening that brought together people from all walks to life to help raise funds for a beautiful cause. We had a representative from the Tenderloin After School program that shared information about the importance of the program and the kids it supports. We also had a young woman who actually graduated from the program and has now returned to volunteer. She talked about the encouragement and support she received while she was in the program.
There was delicious gourmet Indian food catered by New Delhi Restaurant. Henna Garden was in the house as always providing beautiful mehndi for the guests. DJ Amar was behind the decks holding down the music. Beautiful dance performances were shared by the Dholrhythms Dance Company’s student troupe called “Rhythms of Punjab” that performed Bhangra as well as a bellydance performance by Calamity Sam.
We also sold Compassionate Chef’s cafe tshirts especially designed for this event by founder Ranjan Dey’s daughter Sarah Dey. We raised almost $4000 at this fundraiser. All the funds will be allocated to the projects we currently support, Ekatava in Ahemadabad, India and The Tenderloin after school program here in San Francisco. We are very grateful to everyone that joined us and opened up their hearts and pockets to help support our projects. Our next fundraiser will be in November and we hope you’ll be able to join us again.
Many thanks again from Compassionate Chefs Cafe.
