Among the many ambitions of the Community Classroom Project in Delray Beach is to nurture a new generation of food entrepreneurs — there may be no better example of what is possible than local chef and restaurateur Michael Salmon.
After decades as a made man on the New York culinary scene, which included a turn as a finalist on “Food Network Star,” Salmon is now the owner of FlyBird in Delray Beach, an elevated comfort-food spot on Linton Boulevard that specializes in chargrilled chicken.
Salmon will be one of the chefs taking part in Pub at the Hub, the annual fundraiser for the Community Classroom Project on Saturday night at The Hub at Space of Mind in downtown Delray Beach.

WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s not just criminal prosecutions that worry those who have crossed President Donald Trump. There are more prosaic kinds of retaliation: having difficulty renewing passports, getting audited by the IRS and losing federal pensions.
For the many people who have made an enemy of Trump, his return to the presidency this week sparked anxiety.
Gov. Ron DeSantis stunned the Florida Legislature by holding a press conference announcing his intention to call for a special legislative session to focus on a volley of issues that include immigration and condo reform.
