Also on hand for the proceedings will be renowned pastry chef Gale Gand and mixologist Tony Abou-Ganim (as seen on Iron Chef America's "Battle Mango" on Food Network).
The event is held every year as a fundraiser for the Home of the Innocents, with many items available via silent and live auction.
It's only $125, and starts at 8am sharp on Oaks Day, at the Marriott Downtown (280 West Jefferson). Hobnob with Food Network celebrities and have bourbon for breakfast, all for a very good cause.
Hmmmm, yep. Weird. Whatever source I was looking at when I wrote that apparently got the date wrong, and I had no reason to doubt it since I don't really pay attention to the Derby or Oaks myself.
I'm a multi-purpose media interloper working around the globe to make our world a weirder place to live in, but choose to call the dark and bloody ground of Jefferson County, Transylvania (some still call it Kentucky) my home base of operations.
