A Touching Tribute to John Lucente

John Lucente, chef de cuisine at Touch Restaurant and Lounge for the past three years, has been battling cancer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. To help, Touch is hosting a fundraising dinner, “Touched By John,” on Sunday, July 29th, at 7:00 p.m. All profits will go to the chef for his treatments.

"John is a wonderful person and a talented chef," said David Tornek, Touch's founder and owner. "We want him to know that his friends, his colleagues and his neighbors are rooting for his speedy recovery."
