Chi Fan for Charity (CFFC) is back for a fourth year! The event returns with a slew of charity dinners at some of the city’s best restaurants. Each of the 36 participating restaurants will donate a table with a custom menu and wine selection. Entertainment is built-in, with local personalities, associations, and groups of friends hosting each table. This year, our very own dining supercouple Marilyn Mai and Josh Ong from the Beijinger will be hosting a table at The Pavillion Grill.
Chi Fan for Charity starts on Saturday, November 10 at 7.30pm, with an after-party at 10pm at Hatsune (Sanlitun branch). All proceeds from the 2012 edition of CFFC will benefit Little Flower Projects (which we wrote about last Christmas) and The Starfish Project, a jewelry enterprise that helps exploited women from across Asia get alternative employment.
Seats and tickets to the after-party can be booked exclusively at Chi Fan for Charity’s website. While restaurant seats must be reserved online, a limited number of after-party tickets will be sold at the door at Hatsune for RMB 300 starting at 10pm. Restaurant seats range from RMB 500-1,000 each; the after-party ticket is included in the price.
