About Diced in Dayton
Let's put hunger on the chopping block.
Miami Valley Meals' signature fundraiser, Diced in Dayton, presented by AES Ohio, is an interactive, food-filled event that showcases and celebrates the creativity of local chefs as they craft unique dishes from a set of mystery ingredients. Participating chefs must meet the challenge that MVM chefs face each day: how to transform unpredictable ingredients into something new and delicious.
Guests delight in the ingenuity and flavor of the dishes while learning about what Miami Valley Meals does to help those who are food insecure in our community. At the end of the night, the top two chefs, as voted by the people and by judges, compete in a live cook-off for the title of Diced in Dayton Champion.
This is a 21+ event.
