Mama’s Day, one of San Diego’s most anticipated culinary events, returns on Friday, May 7, 2021 for an online party like no other. Mama’s Kitchen is proud to commemorate its 30th Mama’s Day to bring the community together for an evening of great food, fun and friendship. Proceeds from the event benefit Mama’s Kitchen’s mission to deliver three medically-tailored nutritional meals a day, seven days a week, free of charge for local individuals and families vulnerable to hunger due to HIV, cancer or other critical illnesses, including congestive heart failure, type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
With the event being virtual, attendees can tune-in to Mama’s Day from anywhere and in the comfort of their own homes.
General admission and VIP tickets are available online and range from $150 to $250 and include a special multi-course dinner catered by Hyatt Regency La Jolla at The Aventine, a party box, and access to the virtual event featuring live entertainment, special presentations, an opportunity drawing to win fabulous prizes and much more. Attendees will also have access to the Mama’s Day virtual photo booth to share fun and festive pictures of their at-home celebration with all other party-goers.
Making his return as the event’s culinary host is Emmy® award-winning chef, author, YouTube personality and restaurateur, Sam “The Cooking Guy” Zien. In addition to hosting the event, he will also provide a special presentation. Zien has received 15 Emmy awards for his TV show “Sam the Cooking Guy,” has garnered over 2.6 million YouTube followers, and is the owner of Not Not Tacos.
