We would like to offer a special thank you to Former San Francisco Mayor Art Agnos. Mayor Agnos presided over the offical New Delhi Restaurant ribbon cutting 20 years ago and it was an honor and a pleasure to have him back for our anniversary party. He was joined by another special guest: Commisioner Darshan Sing, who also helped open our doors twenty years ago.
 Performances by Dhol Rhythyms and Boom Boom Bollywood entranced the crowd. |
Many thanks to Kodi, Latha, Sarah and Kaitlin Dey for organzing all the donations and the raffle; Renda from Henna Garden for her support with the henna artists; Amar for putting together the program with so many dancers and music that kept us jumping all evening long; Boom Boom Bollywood, Verona, Christine and Monica and the always popular crew from Dhol Rhythyms.
Jose Chuc donated his photographic talents and captured many amazing moments from this celebration. And a big thank you to each and every staff member of New Delhi Restaurant for volunteering their time to this event.
And the biggest Thank You of all to you – our friends, family and contributors!
We will be updating the Compassionate Chefs.org website with photos of the event in the coming week. Also, please visit our Flickr page for even more photos. Please visit soon. Thanks again to everyone who contributed their time, efforts and money.
