Top Hamptons Chefs Serve Up Soups to Benefit East Hampton After-School Program

Some of tops chefs in the Hamptons will come together with sumptuous soups in a show of support for kids in the East Hampton community.

The "5th Annual Empty Bowls: A Souper Event" will be held on Sunday, March 9, from noon until 3 p.m. at the American Legion Post 419, located at 15 Montauk Highway in East Hampton.
