This food-fueled evening is hosted by six of the city’s most exclusive restaurants: Antico Forno, Aria Trattoria, Bricco Ristorante, Lucca, Terramia Ristorante, and Tresca.
Tickets include a five-course dinner with wine pairings at one of the participating restaurants and proceeds benefit Joslin Diabetes Center’s High Hopes Fund, which supports the Center’s greatest needs in research, education, and clinical care.
Joslin Diabetes Center is a world-renowned diabetes research and care organization located in the heart of Boston.
Carla Agrippino Gomes, owner of Antico Forno and Terramia, founded CityFeast in 2005 in the North End with her restaurants and it has continued to grow.
Since its inception, the popular event has raised more than $300,000 for Joslin Diabetes Center’s High Hopes Fund.
This is a personal cause for Carla whose son David has been living with Type 1 diabetes since his first birthday.
Carla credits Joslin with David’s good health over the past 27 years, as well as his interest in the medical field.
Shortly before his first birthday David was slipping into a diabetic coma as health professionals failed to properly diagnose him despite his parents’ persistence that something was wrong.
After that experience, Carla moved David’s care to Joslin, and her family has supported Joslin’s research for a cure and cutting-edge diabetes care.
Tickets are priced at $150 each, of which $100 is tax deductible, and can be purchased at: http://www.joslin.org/cityfeast.
