Distinguished Chef Series
A taste of the finest
The Distinguished Chef Event is celebrating its 30th year in providing a unique dining
experience that is not found elsewhere in Oklahoma.
Patrons can support our students as they work side-by-side with world-class chefs
to produce an evening of hospitality at its finest, while being the beneficiaries
of an outstanding meal, great wine from the best vineyards and vintners and a beautiful
setting with wonderful ambiance. A portion of the proceeds go to students scholarships.

Tradition at its best
The Distinguished Chef Series Scholarship Benefit began in 1990 and has since hosted
chefs from all over the world. Four times a year, chefs travel to OSU to share their
culinary knowledge for one week with HTM students. This student-led scholarship benefit
is planned and orchestrated by HTM students who gain valuable leadership skills.
