Local D.C. restaurants raise money for Japan disaster relief
A local D.C. Chef’s Club has joined forces to support and raise money for the urgent need of disaster relief in Japan. Utilizing e-Bay, chefs will auction off brunch, dinners, tastings, classes, and even hotel stays. The auctions will last for one to two weeks and will continue to accept additional donations. Winning bids will be donated to The American Red Cross.
Participating restaurants include The Tabard Inn, Restaurant Nora, Perry’s, Equinox, The Source, Bourbon, Four Seasons, Masa14, KAZ Sushi Bistro, BLT, Peacock Cafe, Ris, Food & Wine Co., Dino, DC Coast/TenPenh/Ceiba/Acadiana/PassionFish, Jaleo/Zaytinya/Oyamel/Cafe Atlantico, Marcels/Brasserie Beck/Mussel Bar and the Hilton Garden Inn (downtown).
The first online auction to start the series is underway now — KAZ Sushi Bistro is offering a tasting menu for 2 people including KAZ private brand sake or beer.
Bidding is underway here.
