Help Jack Riebel & Kathryne Fight Cancer

Donation protected
Our good friend Chef Jack Riebel has battled non-stop against neuroendocrine cancer since the summer of 2019.  His spirit is high, his optimism is infectious, but his cancer is relentless.

You know Jack is the last person on earth who would ask for help. But the time is here for us to step up and extend the love and hospitality that he and Kat have shared with us all these years.


As he wrote on Facebook in early March 2021: "The bell rings this morning for the next round of the fight. Today was a moment of truth. My prognosis is not great, but I am not done yet. I will continue to make as many moments and memories as my health allows."

Jack is undergoing an aggressive fourth treatment approach in the last year. He's got the best doctors working on him. He feels your love and support. "I hope to get vaccinated, so that I can see as many of you again as possible. I will continue the bout with the beast starting next week with a new treatment, my fourth in in a year. Over the next weeks and months and hopefully longer. I will remain optimistic that something will work."

In this time, Kathryne and Jack need our support! Thanks for your kindness and generosity! Jack has blessed us with his love through his food for decades - now we return the favor.
