Ever Generous

If you missed the culinary creativity of Watermark, Flyte, Zola and dozens of other excellent restaurants at last month’s Iron Fork, you get a second chance to sample the bounty at Generous Helpings, the annual fundraiser for Nashville’s Table and the culinary arts program at nashville Tech.
This year, as escalating food costs put strain on prepared-food rescue program Nashville’s Table and its parent, Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee, the event will play a heightened role in providing food to hungry families across Middle Tennessee.
On a lighter note, you can get a taste of some of Nashville’s best cuisine, from Ombi, Margot, Marché, Tayst, Eastland Café, Tin Angel, Sunset Grill, Mambu, Chappy’s on Church and Kalamatas, to name a few of the generous restaurants stepping up this year. Ombi chef Laura Wilson is chairing the event.
Previously named “Best Food Event” by the Scene, Generous Helpings 2008 will take place 6 to 9 p.m. May 28 at the Nashville Convention Center. Tickets are $40 in advance and $50 at the door. Patron tickets are available for $125, which includes valet parking and VIP access to bars and wine tastings. For tickets, visit secondharvestnashville.org or call 627-1565.
Hope to see you there.
