Beyond the bites, Shef F+W stands for something bigger. This year’s festival continues its partnership with the Texas Restaurant Foundation to support RECIPE, an innovative workforce development platform by T2D Concepts that empowers hospitality workers through education and mentorship. The festival will also award scholarships to aspiring culinary students from the Dallas area.

“Shef F+W is back and better than ever—packed with flavor, fun, and a purpose,” said Foley. Derry added, “We’re bringing together some of the best chefs in the industry to celebrate great food while creating real, lasting impact in our community.”
