CHOW group discussions are open to all – chef, servers, bussers, bartenders, owners, suppliers, farmers, writers, dishwashers, and industry veterans.  Virtual meetings can be accessed from any location, please be aware of the time zones listed.  

Our meetings have a topic or theme to consider and discuss.  And have been described as “a post-shift hang out without the drinks.”  We also have a Peer Support Specialist (is a person who has walked the path of recovery from mental illness/substance use disorder and is trained to assist others in their journeys of recovery) in each meeting. Your attendance supports and motivates our passion for connection and we hope we can do the same in return. (See below for our recorded speakers.)
