Giving Kitchen is thrilled to announce the return of Team Hidi, the nonprofit’s signature tasting event on March 16, 2025, featuring an extraordinary lineup of over 100 food and beverage partners.

Hosted at Truist Park, this year’s event promises an evening of exclusive tastes and experiences from some of Atlanta’s most esteemed restaurants, as well as an impressive live auction, musicians, and fundraising opportunities to help support Giving Kitchen’s mission to help food service workers both locally in our Atlanta community as well as nationwide.

Join us as we celebrate the diverse flavors of Atlanta brought to you by nearly one hundred restaurants, each with kitchens steeped in global influence. This event will showcase delightful culinary creations from James Beard Award-winning chefs, Michelin-recommended establishments, and beloved neighborhood favorites.

As Giving Kitchen’s founder Jen Hidinger-Kendrick says, “Team Hidi couldn’t have happened anywhere but Atlanta.”

Team Hidi came about when Atlanta Chef Ryan Hidinger was diagnosed with late-stage cancer in December 2012. It was Ryan’s journey – the groundswell of support by his industry – that ignited the formation of Giving Kitchen. Hidi’s legacy lives through Giving Kitchen and our mission to provide stability to food service workers. Food and beverage tastings, auctions, musicians, and speeches make Team Hidi Giving Kitchen’s biggest and most-anticipated event every year.

Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the best of Atlanta’s culinary scene and supporting the critical work of Giving Kitchen.
