Dine Out (or In) for Life
April 14th, 2008 by DawnThursday of next week is the annual event to raise money for AIDS, Dining Out for Life. On April 24th, restaurants around Seattle will donate a portion of your bill to Lifelong AIDS Alliance.
The list of participating restaurants has gotten long over the 15 years this fundraiser has been going on, so there’s got to be a restaurant on the list for you. My recommendations are: Quinn’s Pub, Cafe Presse, Red Mill Burgers, Tavolata, Cremant, and really, too many others to list. And if you’re on the Eastside, Pomegranate Bistro and Shamiana are good options.
Eat Local is also participating this year, so you can dine in, or support the cause twice. Drop by Eat Local on Thursday to pick up a dinner for the weekend, and then dine out at your favorite restaurant afterwards. How to Cook a Wolf is just a half block away – last time we were there, we put our name on the list and then went shopping at Eat Local, stuck the food in our car, and returned 20 minutes later just as our table was ready. Or, if you don’t want to wait for a table, Portage Restaurant across the street takes reservations and is also participating.
