Local residents and celebrities Oprah Winfrey and Cat Cora joined together to honor first responders with a meal at Mesa Burger on Thursday.
Cora, world-renowned chef and owner of Mesa Burger on Meigs Road, opened her doors for the special event with Winfrey and served lunch to members of the Montecito Fire Protection District.
Winfrey read a poem titled “I Owe My Life” to firefighters and first responders with their families. Cora said in an Instagram video the purpose of hosting these heroes is to “celebrate them, feed them, and say thank you.”
Cora and Winfrey shared photos and video of the event on their Instagram pages.
Meh…this sort of PR should be paid advertising. It is certainly not news.
Honoring the first responders isn’t “PR”, nor should it be “paid advertising”. It is good news that a positive event took place. Thanks Oprah and Cat.
