Richmonders Giving Back
What a fantastic event filled with gourmet food, divine wine and lots of giving at the Annual Zest Fest 2010! Meals on Wheels, together with Virginia Food Bank, hosted a fabulous event in the Grand Ballroom at the Richmond Convention Center with all monies raised going toward feeding families in need… right in our own backyard. Top Richmond Chefs from A Sharper Palate, Six Burner and Lulu’s, along with many others, were on hand to donate their time and culinary expertise for a tremendously worthy cause. Silent auctions were held for getaways, beauty treatments , sporting events and the like. Even an all expense paid trip for 2 to Paris went to a very lucky bidder! Wine tasting local Virginia wines topped off the evening and flowed beautifully with the lively band and talented vocalists. Generosity was the theme of the night and a definite “must attend” for next year!
Be sure to check the list of auction items next year – the Historic Richmond Inns owners will be putting together a fabulous package that you will want to bid on!
