Inside the Third Annual Citymeals on Wheels Summer Soirée in Bridgehampton

Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch welcomed guests into their Bridgehampton home for the third annual Summer Soirée, reaffirming their longstanding commitment to Citymeals on Wheels.

The event successfully raised funds to deliver 22,000 nutritious meals to homebound older New Yorkers, providing vital sustenance and connection for some of the city’s most vulnerable residents.

Esteemed chef Stefano Secchi of NYC’s Michelin-starred Rezdôra curated the evening’s culinary experience, beginning with refined hors d’oeuvres and culminating in a decadent three-course dinner.

The House of Suntory served as the exclusive spirit sponsor, offering guests elevated pairings that complemented the menu, while FIJI Water kept the celebration refreshingly balanced.

Guests included Citymeals’ loyal supporters and board members, blending philanthropic leadership with the Hamptons’ summer social circle.

The soirée’s setting, with the Tisch home as its elegant backdrop, fostered an atmosphere where meaningful conversation met refined hospitality.

Beyond the night’s indulgence, the gathering reinforced Citymeals’ ambitious goal of ending elder hunger in New York City by 2040.

With more than 2 million meals delivered annually, Citymeals continues to be a lifeline for older New Yorkers, and evenings like this ensure the mission gains both resources and visibility.

The Summer Soirée has quickly earned a place as one of the Hamptons’ most anticipated philanthropic traditions, offering an evening of generosity with true social gravitas.

As glasses clinked and courses were served, the spirit of the evening was clear: community, compassion, and culinary excellence can together make a tangible difference.
