On Wednesday, April 24^th, the 24^th annual “A Taste for Charity” is hosting a rousing number of local restaurants, live music and sizable silent and live auctions to raise funds for 10 local non-profit organizations.

Some tables are still available for sponsorship purchase, and individual tickets are just $60 online or $70 at the door. For tickets go to: http://www.lbr-caf.info/

A locals’ favorite
This is one of my favorite local events. With great chefs, live music and fun auction items all for a fantastic cause, it certainly hits all the high points. But, it’s really one of my faves because it’s one of our first locally-oriented events of the year, giving us that rare opportunity to re-connect with friends and catch up on all the latest news before we dive underground for the summer season.

Fun food & new faces
There’s certainly no lack of inventive tastes at Taste for Charity, either. This year, taste treats will be aplenty from 11 restaurants that include Nirvana Grille, Kitchen in the Canyon, Laguna Beach Beer Company, The Cliff, Gelato Paradiso, Skyloft, Carmelita’s Kitchen, K’ya Bistro/Rooftop and Tommy Bahama. Even the popular Butchery in Newport Coast’s Crystal Cove is participating this year.
