Help us celebrate Jacques Pépin’s remarkable legacy and 90th birthday with not one, but two special events at Le Voltaire French Restaurant!

Savor the best of both worlds at Le Voltaire as chefs Djamil Bah-Traore, Wilson Calixte, Cedric Fichepain, Cosmos Artowi and Meya Hill and High Tea Omaha's Lisa Ehlers present extraordinary brunch and dinner celebrations honoring chef Jacques Pépin this June! Enjoy elegant European classics at a private brunch service in the morning ($75pp), and experience an exclusive vibrant Afro-French fusion cuisine experience while supporting House of Bah Foundation for dinner ($150pp).

Alongside House of Bah Foundation’s Chef Djibril Djamil Bah-Traore, these chefs are committed to inspiring people to explore, honor, and uplift their culinary heritages through experiential learning, including by providing House of Bah Foundation’s students with paid, culturally-affirming jobs. We can’t wait to share how Jacques Pépin Foundation’s recent grant to House of Bah Foundation has transformed lives in our community! A portion of all ticket sales will be donated to House of Bah Foundation, a JPF grantee.
