Have to say all the restaurants served delicious food,but the standout of the evening was 75 Main with Natasha and Chef David Hensley.Their charm,grace,and style had the whole room talking and coming back for more.... The display by 75 Main was beautiful and Chef David explained that although Dan, of Schmidts Bros Produce, could not be there,they wanted to help make the evening. Kudos to then supporting the community. There was even a delicious champage that had us hovering at the 75 Main spot..... Too much to say about the event as it was a great time had by all The standout I do want to comment is this....we will be going to 75 Main........ And thats the Last Bite.......
