If your favorite part of the football game is the pre-game party in the parking lot, reserve your tickets for the Ultimate Tailgate benefit for Lovin’ Spoonfuls. The early evening fete, scheduled for Sunday, November 13th at Sam’s, features eats from the likes of Asia Mei of Sam’s, Joanne Chang of Myers + Chang, Matt Jennings of Farmstead and La Laiterie, Derek Barragan of Del Frisco’s, Ming Tsai of Blue Ginger, Carla and Christine Pallotta of Nebo, Amanda Lydon and Gabriel Frasca of Ventuno and Straight Wharf, and the folks at Island Creek Oysters. If that’s not enough to sate every craving, fun-loving chefly friends Jamie Bissonnette of Toro and Coppa and Will Gilson of EAT Boston will be breaking out the Caja China for a full-on pig roast. Tickets cost $100 each – and are getting scooped up at record speed – so log on to the Lovin’ Spoonfuls website to purchase tickets and to get all the details. Proceeds will support their mission to redirect perishable and unserved foods that often gets tossed to people who need it.
