After a five-year hiatus, GNAT-TV’s Dinner Party is back, and we’re serving up more than just great food. On Tuesday, September 30 at 6:15 PM, GNAT-TV invites you to grab a seat at the table for the return of its beloved in-studio cooking show, featuring local chefs, seasonal ingredients, and regional food producers. Special thanks to Stonewood Farm, Woodchuck Cider, Wilcox Ice Cream, and The Vermont Spätzle Company for their generous contributions making this evening’s meal possible.

The first Dinner Party will be hosted by Tatyanna Wright, GNAT-TV board member and an accomplished television producer, alongside award-winning chef Amy Chamberlain. Tatyanna is a writer, television producer, and podcast host. Her work has aired on major networks including A&E, MTV, Food Network, and Bravo. She most recently served as Head of Content for Gaia’s Transformation Channel, where she produced shows that inspire meaningful connections featuring thought leaders from around the world. Her podcast, The Conscious Diva, is a highly rated bi-monthly series featuring interviews with some of the world’s most influential tastemakers in the transformational and spiritual space.

Bringing the culinary side to life is Amy Chamberlain, a graduate of the New England Culinary Institute and previous longtime chef-owner of The Perfect Wife Restaurant and Tavern in Manchester. Now the chef behind Amy’s on the Road, a private chef and catering company, Amy brings warmth, skill, and soul to every dish. She’s cooked on the Food Network, earned the title of Vermont Chef of the Year, and has fed thousands with joy.

This special edition marks the first Dinner Party since November 2019, right before the world pressed pause. Now the knives are sharpened, the cameras are rolling, and the audience (that’s you) is back in the studio, live once again.

At its core, Dinner Party is more than a show. It’s a celebration of food, conversation, and connection. You’ll watch the chef and host cook a full meal in real time, sharing recipes, techniques, and philosophies from the kitchen and beyond. Then you’ll enjoy the meal, alongside your fellow guests, as part of the experience.

And here’s the best part: your ticket supports the mission of GNAT-TV, helping keep local media alive and accessible in Northshire Vermont. Proceeds from the event go directly toward funding independent programming, youth media education, and community-centered government transparency. So every bite you take helps fuel the information and stories that shape this region.

Tickets are $55 for one or $100 for a pair and include the show, the meal, and a front-row seat to the kind of community storytelling that only GNAT-TV can cook up.

Seats are limited and will sell out fast.

Reserve yours now and come hungry.
