Dubbed Hot Chefs Cool Jazz, the 2012 event took place at The Fairmont Palliser in Calgary.

In support of CCFCC Bocuse d'Or Canada and Brown bagging for Calgary's Kids, the evening's festivities included a silent auction, and dishes from some of Calgary's best chefs.

The event tuned into high gear with the live auction (mc'ed by the lively and entertaining Elevate auctions Bill Brown and John Murray).

Good luck to Chef Chen at the culinary olympics (Bocuse D'Or) in 2013!!
