Last updated on Thursday, April 20, 2017

(BLOOMINGTON) - Bam! Zap! Pow! Expect to find heroes and villains exchanging their weapons for whisks on May 13, as guests dip into 100 culinary delights whipped up by local “celebrity” chefs.

The seventh annual Bloomington 100 Men Who Cook - "Heroes and Villains" will benefit the IU Health Children's Therapy Center's 2017 Assisted Technology and Mobility Initiative.

The event will be held at the Monroe Convention Center and is open to anyone who loves to eat delicious food while supporting the good health of our local community. Chefs will prepare a dish in one of the categories of appetizer, soup, salad, side dish, main dish or dessert. Participants are encouraged to "tip" their favorite chefs - with all money going to charity but all bragging rights going to those with the most tips.

Chefs include actual local chefs, business executives, business owners, physicians, retirees, neighbors and friends! They all share a knack for creating great-tasting dishes and are excited to share their favorite recipes with the community.

Proceeds from both the event and the tip jars will go directly to the Children's Therapy Center where they will be used for technology and mobility equipment including:

In its 25 years, the Children's Therapy Center has served more than 12,000 children, providing physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and social services.
