Real Men Cook for Odyssey 2011
On Monday August 29th 2011 several high profile Male Celebrities joined forces to support Odyssey House at a fundraising luncheon held at the bel Mondo restaurant located at the Rocks in Sydney.
Real Men Cook identifies the role of men in their families, and also provides an opportunity for all of our guests to rub shoulders with these Celebrities whilst enjoying a fun filled afternoon of fine food and beverages overlooking Sydney Harbour.
Many of the 'Real Men' make return appearances year after year. The contingent who cooked up a storm this year included Better Homes and Garden's Ed Halmagyi, head chef of MuMu restaurant Craig McIndoe, media personalities Simon Marnie, Luke Jacobz, Mark Ferguson, Chris Gray, Justin Melvey and James Tobin who was the MC for the day.
Now in its tenth year, Real Men Cook 2011 was again a great success that raised much needed funds to help Odyssey House continue to help Australians live a drug-free life.
We would like to give a special thanks to everyone that attended Real Men Cook and supported Odyssey House at this fabulous luncheon. Your continuing generosity and support allows Odyssey House to continue its life saving programs which have helped more than 30,000 people with alcohol and other drugs misuse.
Again we thank you and look forward to seeing you at the 2012 Real Men Cook for Odyssey luncheon!!
We would also like to thank our sponsors, celebrity chefs and the Real Men Cook for Odyssey taskforce - Ian Brown, Ben Dalton, Kai Ellman, Tina Green, James Pitts, Carlie Poulden, Sandy Schofield and Jessica Berrell.
