Dans La Rue is a cherished Montreal charity that helps street kids get on their feet - and survive by serving them daily meals. Their annual fundraiser is happening Thursday, 6 p.m. at the Montreal Science Centre and it promises to be a blast.

Last year it was burgers, but for this year's edition of De la rue aux étoiles, some of Montreal's top chefs will compete to make the ultimate taco. Among the restaurants participating are Tuck Shop, Bice, Pintxo, Ferreira Café, Le Boucan, Bocata, BAXO, Taverne Gaspar and Le St-Urbain. CJAD's own Lesley Chesterman will be one of the judges.

Aki Tchitacov, who ironically has "taco" in his name, and Tuck Shop's Chef Theo Lerikos joined Ric and Suzanne today to chat about the event and Theo's hot St. Henri eatery. Listen to the chat by clicking play to the right and join me at the event on Thursday!
