Dinners for Obama: Sunday dinners in Soho (NYC)

Yes We Can (eat): www.dinnersforobama.com

Last week I attended the first "Dinner for Obama." Great food, interesting people, excellent conversation and terrific ideas about what we can each do - I started pulling together the WTW email after this meal. I'm all about food changing the world, and I will be making dessert for upcoming dinners.

In the words of chefs Courtney and Richie:
We're extending an invitation to a series of Sunday dinners supporting the Obama campaign. It'll be a fun, casual, totally non-nerdy way to meet other Obama supporters, eat some delicious food, and contribute. Go to www.dinnersforobama.com. It's kind of like those PBS pledge drives, except instead of a tote bag, you get an amazing meal. And instead of ensuring another season of Antiques Roadshow, you're ensuring that a capable leader has a chance to lead this country. Seems like a good deal to me. We are asking for a minimum donation of $150 to Obama Victory Fund after the meal -- please bring a checkbook or credit card as we can't accept cash. Say it again with me: www.dinnersforobama.com. You can read over the menus (each meal is different!) and RSVP. We've got ten spaces available for each Sunday, but they're filling up fast. This week's is a Korean inspired meal. So act now, before they all fill up and you are forced to eat yet another bland, tasteless meal that doesn't help Obama at all! We'll email you all the details once you RSVP, which you can do through here or by emailing dinnersforobama@gmail.com. We just had some cancellations for this evening, so there are 5 spots left -- hope to see you there!
