On May 15th, Paula hosted a charity event for the Bethesda Home for Boys, which raised just over $100,000.00. With the entire Deen family in attendance to meet all 200 guests, it was a magical night. Resplendent with dancing on the back lawn, cool drinks and this delicious menu.
The savory menu was prepared by Lisa Jackson (General Manager) and the staff of Uncle Bubba’s Oyster House.
The sweets menu was prepared by Paula’s cousin Johnnie Gabriel and the staff of Gabriel’s Desserts.
