One of the most important, in my opinion, events in Cincinnati is happening this week – 7 DAYS FOR SIDS.
7 DAYS FOR SIDS was launched after the tragic loss of Tatiana de Cavel to SIDS in 2002.
The program, which is the largest fundraiser for SIDS research in the country, was started shortly after. Chefs from all types of restaurants in the Cincinnati area donate their time and talent to raise money for this vital research. Retailers and other interested parties also participate in various ways.
Check out the website (http://www.7daysforsids.com) for the complete schedule, and support it if you can.

For this month’s outing, a bit of a change-up… The members of HAPPY MOUTH SUPPERÂ CLUB met for brunch at Lavomatic, one of the Jean-Robert French Restaurant Group’s newest places. It’s a favorite of mine for their fresh, local, organic ingredients and whimsical preparations, plus the executive chef is a good friend of mine (hi Joanne!).
Wednesday, July 16 2008 was a Wine Dinner event at the Midwest Culinary Institute at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College. It was hosted by Chef Matt Winterrowd and the cooking staff of The Summit restaurant, and they did a great job. Amuse Bouche First…
