This afternoon I attended a lovely food and wine tasting event at Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills.  It had dozens of tasting tables, a live jazz band, raffle tables, and lots of friendly folks.  It was a benefit for the Beverly Hills Bar Foundation Pro Bono Legal Services programs.  They hold it every year.  Greystone Mansion is a famous mansion with a fascinating history, and it had beautiful views of the city and wonderful grounds and fountains.  For more information, visit vintagebouquet.com. 

One restaurant in particular had delicious tasting samples:  Phorage Los Angeles (website phoragela.com).  They are a very fresh, locally sourced modern Vietnamese restaurant and the samples were just yummy.  I can't wait to visit the restaurant.  Many more winemakers, restaurants, dessert makers, and others also offered samples of their wares.  It was fun to try everything out while supporting a very good cause.  

4/29/14 an update -- I just went to Phorage Los Angeles for lunch, it was delicious!  Light, lovingly prepared, very fresh food.
