Imagine spending an afternoon with Food Outreach, St. Louis Magazine and great friends, in a breathtaking space, and eating spectacular food. This was all bundled up into A Tasteful Affair 25—celebrating 25 years—at the beautiful Four Seasons Hotel Ballroom on April 7!
With access to the outdoor patio giving an amazing view of the cityscape, more than 1,000 guests were able to mingle amongst themselves and other supporters, and enjoy tastings from over 40 local area restaurants. Not only was the food great, but the drinks had pizazz too. And while guests were perusing the cocktails and cuisine, a silent auction was being held that offered tickets to sporting events, beauty enhancements, one-of-a-kind experiences, and even vacation packages!
St. Louis Magazine Dining Editor George Mahe and Dining Contributor Ann Pollack in partnership with Sauce Magazine Managing Editor Stacy Schultz were assigned the "tough" job of selecting a winner in the categories of savory, sweet and decor among the food vendors at the event. Who won? Gregory's Creative Cuisine won in the category of savory, Tenacious Eats won for sweet, and Pairings A Catering Company won for their booth decor.
Food Outreach has spent the past 25 years providing nutritional support and enhancing the quality of life for men, women and children living with HIV/AIDS or cancer in the St. Louis area. Those who purchased VIP tickets to A Tasteful Affair 25 spent their afternoon in a private lounge, with complimentary drinks, upscale food tastings, and even fun entertainment— the perfect way to help a good cause!
