GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn.-- Acme Comedy Company is celebrating its 20th anniversary this November is a huge way. Not only do they have 20 national headliners performing November 3rd - 5th, theyr'e also holding a Comedian Cooking Charity Contest called "Comedy Kitchen", with proceeds benefiting Fraser.
Comedians Mary Mack, Chad Daniels, and C Willi Myles shared their favorite on-the-road recipes with professional chef Vincent Francoual from Vincent A Restaurant and showed him how they cook at a long stay hotel. Chef Vincent then reworked and tweaked the recipes, went shopping with the comedians, and taught them the new recipes.
During Acme's anniversary week, the three new dishes will be added to the menu, and for each dish sold, 20% of the proceeds will go directly to charity. The comedian's dish that sells the most will have a donation for $5000 made to Fraser in his/her name.
