NOBA's Young Lawyers Section is being awarded the ABA 2022 Service to the Public Award for the Bar & Grille Cooking Competition!

The Bar & Grille is an annual law firm cooking competition where amateur lawyer chefs from local law firms cook off against one another. The event is a benefit for the Veterans Justice Fellowship at Southeast Louisiana Legal Services. The event offers family, friends, and the general public plenty of entertainment, free drinks, and of course, a sampling of the dishes prepared on-site. There is also a children's play area and plenty of room for picnics, games, and fun for the whole family. Local judges team up as celebrity bar tenders and new in 2022, a judge served as the honorary chair of the event, thanks to Judge Roland Belsome.

The award will be received at the ABA Annual Meeting in Chicago this summer.
