Taste of the Nation

It was Taste of the Nation this weekend. Did you know that 50 million people go to bed hungry each night and that 17million of them are children? Whew, that's a lot in a place where food is abundant. To help this cause, over 40 restaurants set up shop yesterday to help raise money. My favorites, white bean and octopus from (? not sure!) ; lime, homemade ginger, gin cocktail, with big ice cube from Ray's and Stark Bar; furikake kettle corn from A Frame, olive oil microscone ice cream from Ink, and apricot rice pudding from Craft - I think this would be a perfect meal (yes, with 2 desserts, but I guess 3 if you count the kettle corn!).
