St. Louis Magazine’s Food Wine Design event gives one night to American Cancer Society

St. Louis Magazine is proud to announce the return of Food Wine Design, a weeklong dinner series that focuses on the city’s culinary and design talent. The chosen charity for the Thursday, May 17 dinner is the American Cancer Society.

Food Wine Design was introduced in June 2011 and the nearly sold-out dinner series raised more than $21,000 for local charities. This unforgettable dining experience offers food lovers a truly unique and memorable menu created by the city’s most celebrated chefs. Each evening’s theme features flavorful foods and wines, stunning tabletop designs, and an exclusive four-course menu. Each dinner highlights two esteemed chefs from St. Louis’ best local restaurants, three tabletop designers, wine and beer pairings, a creative mixologist, a talented entertainer, and a charity partner that will receive a portion of the proceeds.
