"BBQs are all about food, friends, and great community spirit,” says Wolfgang Puck, Owner/Restaurateur of Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group and Wolfgang Puck Worldwide. “At Spago, we’re excited to fire up the grill alongside The Maybourne Beverly Hills and so many amazing restaurants - not just to share the joy of cooking, but to do something meaningful together for No Kid Hungry.”

Live music and immersive photo moments will punctuate the three-hour tasting experience, consisting of chef stations, custom bars, and wine and spirits tastings. Attendees will also have the opportunity to partake in a silent auction featuring exclusive items and experiences with 100% of the silent auction sales benefiting No Kid Hungry. 

“Nothing brings people together like food - especially BBQ,” says Sam Jagger, Managing Director of The Maybourne Beverly Hills. “Community is at the heart of The Maybourne Beverly Hills and we’re proud to join Wolfgang and this exceptional roster of talent to offer our elevated take on this cherished tradition in support of No Kid Hungry.”

MUJEN, the premium Japanese spirit sparking a new wave in cocktail culture, is also thrilled to join the Beverly Hills Autumn BBQ benefitting No Kid Hungry. The World’s 50-Best bartender, Tato Giovannoni, adds “There is a reason why MUJEN is leading the introduction of this new spirit category worldwide - it’s the quality in how it’s made, and the integrity of the people behind it.” Guests at the star-studded event will enjoy exclusive MUJEN cocktails crafted by Tato, elevating the night, while fueling the mission to end childhood hunger.
