MONTREAL (July 20, 2010) --  CookandDate is launching a string of singles events this summer to be hosted by renowned chefs, its first featuring Chuck's Day Off star and celebrity chef Chuck Hughes. Soon kicking off the second season of his program, the Food Network host will be heating things up in the kitchen with a privileged number of single foodies this August.

"We are excited. Chuck is charismatic, entertaining and a rising star in the cooking world, and we are proud to have him as a guest chef for the first event of its kind!" said CookandDate founder Cristina Mucciardi. As showcased on his show, Hughes will instruct guests to cook meals from his famous repertoire of home recipes. The night will retain the usual CookandDate format whereby guests enjoy cocktails, mingle and team up to cook several courses.
