DonRocks Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Next Wednesday from 6:30 - 9 PM, Chesterbrook Residences - a senior-citizen living center right on the McLean-Arlington-Falls Church border - will feature 25 local restaurants such as Lebanese Taverna, Kazan, Clare and Don's Beach Shack, and Legal Seafood, all serving up samples of their cuisine. There will be live music and a raffle drawing, and most importantly, 100% of the proceeds of only $25 will go towards the Chesterbrook Continuing Care Fund which supports the Chesterbrook Residences - a non-profit, mixed-income, affordable, assisted-living community. For every $25 collected at the door, Fairfax County will match it 100%, so your minimal entry fee will instantly turn into $50. I hope to be there next Wednesday with Matt. This is the only senior-assisted living center where I've ever gone in and seen what the kitchen was doing, and I was immensely impressed by the program implemented by their talented culinary director. From what I hear, everything has progressed even further from when I was in almost one year ago. Chesterbrook Residences is right on Westmoreland Drive, only a couple of minutes off of I-66, and a stone's throw from downtown McLean. A great price, a great cause, and right in the heart of residential Northern Virginia. See you there? The exact address is 2030 Westmoreland St, Falls Church, VA Cheers, Rocks. P.S.
