Dishes & Wishes: A Taste of Tampa Bay

“Dishes & Wishes: A Taste of Tampa Bay” features fabulous food from some of the area’s best restaurants, an open bar with specialty cocktails, auctions, and live music by The SugarSax and DJ Anthony Carollo. The nonprofit fundraiser (www.dishesandwishestampa.com), whose proceeds will be used to underwrite life-changing wishes for local children that have critical illnesses, is presented by Monin Gourmet Flavorings. Make-A-Wish Southern Florida has granted more than 14,000 life-changing wishes (average cost: $8,000) since 1983 for children who have critical illnesses. It aims to grant a wish for every medically-eligible child in its territory.
