John Wabeck Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 It has to be better this time as it's not immediately (next day) after the Restaurant Awards. Hangovers abound as I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ericandblueboy Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Are any portion of the ticket price tax deductible? Second, how is the food served? Third and Fourth, is anyone here hosting a table and if no one here is hosting a table, are there people who are interested in pitching in for a table and get $25 off the individual ticket price?

AGallagher Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Are any portion of the ticket price tax deductible? Second, how is the food served? Third and Fourth, is anyone here hosting a table and if no one here is hosting a table, are there people who are interested in pitching in for a table and get $25 off the individual ticket price? You can deduct the cost of your ticket as a tax-deductible charitable contribution minus $50 per ticket. (If you are purchasing a $250 ticket, $200 is tax deductible.) And secondly, the food is served from stations, staffed by the celebrity chefs themselves, throughout the ballroom of the Hilton Washington. Thank you for your questions, hope to see you there!
