By combining his skills from 茄子污污视频 with his local business connections, Koniczek knew that this would be the perfect occasion for 茄子污污视频, the local culinary 茄子污污视频, food enthusiasts, the Ukraine 茄子污污视频 to come together and do something special.
鈥淔ood has always been a central part of my identity. My Oma taught me to be kind, generous and set the table for those in need,鈥 says Koniczek, who sees this as the first of many opportunities for the local food scene to prioritize philanthropy. 鈥淲e have quite the spread prepared, which we鈥檝e created by working with local Ukrainian chefs and connections. As a foodie myself, I can鈥檛 express how excited I am to try it all!鈥
