Guests enjoyed unlimited samples of signature tastings crafted by chefs from premier local restaurants. Complimentary wine, beer, and champagne were also served. Participating restaurants and chefs included Dolce, Pamplemousse Grille, and many more. Event proceeds will help foster youth age 12-18 who have been removed from their homes due to abuse and neglect. Casa de Amparo's programs support these youth by providing them access to critical services including housing, healthcare, and mental health support.
