The event features tastings of signature dishes from many local restaurants as well as wines and beer from area merchants. This year’s specialties will range from appetizers to main courses to desserts and will feature a wide range of cuisines, including American, Asian, Indian and Portuguese. 

As in past years, proceeds from the event will benefit a local charity, and this year’s beneficiary will be El Centro Hispano. El Centro Hispano has been an integral part of White Plains for over 41 years, assisting the Hispanic community in its integration into American culture. 

Isabel E. Villar, founder and executive director of El Centro Hispano said the organization was “honored to be considered as this year’s recipient and is pleased that additional funding will be available to help with the many valuable programs the center has to offer. ” 

Last year’s event was a complete sell out, and tickets are going quickly. Reserved and open seating are available, and there will be a silent auction and raffle the night of the event. 

Tickets can be purchased online at http://www.womansclubofwhiteplains.org/.
