ST. JUDE’S GOURMET GALA National Building Museum | PHOTOS BY TONY POWELL GALLOPING GOURMETS: Gala chairmen Sanju Bansal and Charlotte Pineda, along with restaurant chairman Maziar Farivar of Peacock Café chose a Mardi Gras theme for this year’s fête, drawing more than 40 top Washington chefs to help raise critical funds for St. Jude’s, which never charges families to treat critically ill children. The delectable dishes and silent auction raised more than $550,000 for the hospital with The Source’s Sco Drewno winning the coveted Taster’s Choice award for his lobster toast.
