ABOUT CHEF NATHANIAL ZIMET:
As many of you know, Nathanial is the chef and co-owner of Boucherie and The Cue Crawl, lovingly known as the Purple Truck. In the early morning of Sunday, May 22, 2011, Nathanial was the victim of an armed robbery attack in front of his home. After more than two weeks in the hospital, he is finally home and recovering from serious, but non-life threatening gunshot wounds. Although Nathanial is expected to make a full recovery, he still faces a hard road ahead. Unfortunately, Nathanial is without health insurance and faces mounting hospital bills. Any bit of support from friends and the community will be the key towards a successful recovery. In a way, the entire community is affected by such a senseless crime and random act of violence. The BEASTS & BRASS BENEFIT seeks to bring the community together in an effort to defray the medical bills that Nathanial faces. The commraderie of the event will also help the community heal from such a tragic crime.

Nathanial has given so much to this community by means of participating in various fundraisers throughout the years. He has donated his time, energy and amazing food to these events because he believes in giving back to the community, he believes in New Orleans. Please join us for an evening of food, friends, music and libations as we pay tribute to our dear friend Nathanial!
