 Former First Lady Barbara Bush and child CULINAIRE Chef and Founder Barbara McKnight provided a culinary demo on Sept. 16th at Stone Acorn Builders' Southern Living Beyond the Storm Showcase Home at 3758 Drummond in Braes Heights. The showcase home, a modern farmhouse - style design, is located at 3758 Drummond in Braes Heights, a neighborhood decimated by flooding during Hurricane Harvey. The showcase home is built on the site of a bungalow that was razed after damage by the storm. Home tour proceeds benefited the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation.

Houston is one of the most diverse cities in the U.S., and this diversity brings with it a lively culture, mix of languages, and distinctive cuisines from all around the world. Creating an innovative menu and possessing the business acumen to manage a culinary enterprise requires a unique set of skills and a devout commitment to the cuisine industry. The Asia Society Texas Center held a wide-ranging discussion with female Asian chefs and restaurateurs who have gained acclaim locally and nationally, about their challenges, major successes, and all that was learned along the way. This program launched the fourth year of Asia Society Texas Center's popular Women's Leadership Series and CULINAIRE was honored to be selected to create the menu and cuisine for the event.

The evening raised more than $414,000. Attendance was set at 200, but the actual number of guests reached over 300.
