NEW ORLEANS – Craving fine dining in the comfort of your own home? Ochsner Health and Saba are teaming up for a special virtual culinary event.

Chef Alon Shaya, a five-time James Beard award nominee, has curated a four-course dinner for two with your choice of cocktails for $100. You can purchase tickets and choose your pick up time at www.ochsner.org/athome.

Since 2013, nearly 180 projects have been made possible by donors, including a cancer prevention clinic, a digital fitness and wellness platform and an early labor lounge at Ochsner Baptist, just to name a few.
