Sure it’s Giving Tuesday nationally, but here in San Francisco a group of compassionate pastry chefs have organized a two-week long charitable effort that’s a win-win for everyone. The concept of collecting winter coats for those who need them isn’t new, but their
One Warm Coat charity drive has a sweet twist - donate a warm coat at one of the participating bakeries and restaurants between
November 26 through December 10 and you’ll be rewarded with a free custom holiday-inspired sweet treat from the pastry chef at that location.
Emily Luchetti, executive pastry chef of Waterbar and Farallon is the mastermind behind the promotion but the full roster of participating pastry chefs are
