Ron Huberman to participate in celebrity cook-off

Chicago Public Schools CEO Ron Huberman is still working on finding the recipe for success in his day job — but this weekend’s TrueFlavors Celebrity Cook-Off will require more immediate achievement.

The annual event, which takes place from 6-9 p.m. Saturday at the Chopping Block in the Merchandise Mart, gives teams 35 minutes to prepare a three-course meal using secret ingredients revealed just before the contest. Other “celebrity” participants include Casey Thompson and Dale Levitski from Top Chef and Food Network personality, Sunny Anderson. Want to be there to witness the action (and maybe even get in on it via live auction)? You can buy a $150 ticket here. Proceeds benefit TrueChild.
