Richman is in Chicago for a new pop-up dinner series called the Common Threads Chef Takeover fueled by Circuit of the Americas. To raise awareness for childhood nutrition, the pop-up dinner series will consist of five ticketed events throughout the country, each featuring a group of chefs collaborating to create a themed meal. All funds raised will benefit Common Threads programs, teaching children in underserved communities how to lead healthier lives.
