 Achievement Academy’s 8th annual Top Chef of Polk County will take place on Monday, February 28, 2022, from 6 to 9 p.m. at participating chefs’ restaurants. Guests will enjoy a three-course meal that includes their chef's signature dish accompanied by a wine or libation that complements the dish's flavors. During the event, there will be an online silent auction. The event raises funds for children from birth through age five with special needs or who are at risk for developmental delays. Community leaders from throughout Polk County will be paired with one of the participating chefs to collaborate on their fundraising efforts in the six weeks leading up to the event. The chef/community leader team with the highest combined donations from the auction and online donations will be awarded the “Top Philanthropic Chef” and “Top Philanthropic Community Leader,” respectively. A panel of judges will sample each chef’s creation the day of the event to award the “Top Chef of Polk County.” There will also be an award for the most creative use of a mystery ingredient. The ingredient will be chosen through a blind drawing.
