At an annual get-together at New York City’s St. Bartholomew’s Church, more than 500 New Yorkers, from the homeless to the wealthy, sat down to dinner on Friday evening to enjoy a meal prepared by three luxury hotel chefs.
About 180 people paid to attend the holiday meal, roughly 320 soup kitchen regulars attended and more than two dozen volunteers came to help keep the conversations going and usher out the food, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Kitchen staff from the Lotte New York Palace, New York Four Seasons, and the Waldorf Astoria New York cooked up roasted turkey, gravy, potatoes, green beans, and desserts ranging from eclairs to fruit cake.
