Join us for Pendry Newport Beach’s fourth annual Chefsgiving, an evening celebrating Orange County’s most talented chefs for a meaningful cause. Guests will sample Thanksgiving-inspired small dishes from each participating chef at chef-attended action stations, paired with wine and live entertainment throughout the Grand Ballroom.
