CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, UNITED STATES, November 21, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — Chef Sebastian White of The Evolved Network, along with event partner, The Paramount Group, are excited to announce “Eat & Evolve” on Monday, November 28, 2022. The benefit for The Evolved Network will take place at Eden at 2734 W Roscoe St from 6pm-9pm, and feature a meet and greet with the team, food stations from top Chicago chefs, and cocktails and mocktails from Eden’s cash bar. With a mission of providing “unconditional care through a holistic and therapeutic approach that functions to build a foundation for youth”, The Evolved Network works to develop and lead career programming for a range of hospitality fields, in addition to providing select mental health services. Programs include gardening and culinary training, restaurant service training, therapeutic intervention and therapeutic services, and business management and financial literacy education.
A goal of The Evolved Network is to open Evolved Kitchen & Garden, a fully functioning restaurant that will act as a holistic healing and therapeutic space to execute programming and give students a way to connect, evolve, and gain real world experience. “The process of working at a restaurant has been life-changing for me, whether learning the pragmatics of the culinary arts, hospitality and financial skills, or in coming to understand and embrace myself through the fulfillment of my culinary craft”, says chef Sebastian White. “With the programs we’ve developed at The Evolved Network we hope to prepare, guide and empower the next generation of hospitality professionals.” Through strategic partnerships and community support from local businesses like The Paramount Group, chef Sebastian will continue to expand programming and raise funds to open Evolved Kitchen & Garden. “When we first met Sebastian and heard how he was helping children in Chicago, we immediately knew that we wanted to work with him,” shared Jodi Fyfe of The Paramount Group. “A core belief at The Paramount Group is to fuel good to feel good by eating healthy, high-quality ingredients that aid in physical and mental wellness. Learning to cook and eat healthy is something that should be accessible to everyone, and we intend to support Sebastian and The Evolved Network in helping make that happen.”
