Bethesda Row's world-famous chef, Jose Andres, will host the Friends of James Beard Benefit Dinner in downtown Bethesda on Sunday, October 28, 2012.

This blockbuster event includes a 5-star dinner prepared by Andres himself, and an all-star team of chefs, including Michael Costa of Zaytinya, Ruben Garcia of minibar, and a host of others from various Jaleo locations.

The evening will begin with a theater performance, at Bethesda's Round House Theatre at 3:00 PM.  Actor Nick Olcott will portray "America's First Foodie," James Beard, in the new production of I Love to Eat.

You can buy tickets separately to attend a performance of the play, which opens this Wednesday.

But only this special event follows the play with a dining experience planned by a James Beard Award winner!  Attendees will head to Jaleo Bethesda following the performance.

It goes without saying, but order tickets now!

HELP RAISE MONEY FOR GREG HOURIGAN, OWNER OF BETHESDA'S HARD TIMES CAFE

Come out to Hard Times Cafe tonight, anytime for now until close (midnight or later) at 4922 Del Ray Avenue here in downtown Bethesda, for a special fundraiser!

The downtown business community is joining together to raise funds to support Greg Hourigan, the cafe's owner, and his family.

Greg is suffering from leukemia, and is currently in the hospital.  As any downtown restaurant owner can tell you, the rents, and energy/property/liquor taxes in Montgomery County have never been higher.

So the community is lending a hand, and you can join them tonight!

A $20 donation is suggested, but donate whatever amount you wish.   Enjoy their famous chili, nacho bar and chicken wings.  Nearby neighbor Guardado's is even providing paella!

So stop by if you have time tonight.

If you can't, but would still like to help Greg and his family, please send your check to:
