Help A Cause By Eating

Foreign Cinema is just one of many restaurants in San Francisco, The East Bay, and across the country that will take part in Dining Out For Life on April 26, 2007 (Thursday night). On this night, if you eat at any participating restaurant, 25 percent of the restaurant's take will be donated to the Dining Out program, which supports HIV/AIDS program.

Dining Out started in Philadelphia and has spread to various cities and restaurants (ironically Los Angeles and New York are noticeably absent in this effort). In San Francisco, along with Foreign Cinema, you can dine at places like Andalu, Acme Chophouse, Mecca, Ebisu and Chaya Brasserie. In the East Bay, you can dine at fine restaurants like Dopo, Cesar and Bay Wolf, which are all helping the cause.

I encourage you all to go out on April 26 and pick a restaurant that's committed to the Dining Out event. It's rare that you can help a good cause by simply eating out.
