to Benefit

Abilities Foundation

Clearwater, FL (September 28, 2008) The Abilities Foundation, The Polished Palate, and the Island Way Grill announce a Tequila Tasting Reception and Dinner on October 29, 2008, with charitable proceeds benefiting the Abilities Foundation. This premiere event includes a Tequila Tasting and 3-Course Tequila Tasting Dinner, with cuisine designed by Chef Tom Pritchard. Each of the three courses will be paired or infused with tequila and other Mexican spirits.

“This is a spirited journey through the world of Agave Spirits, says Frank DeLucia, president and CEO of the Abilities Foundation. “There will be Tequilas, Mescals and more. Patrons will learn the art of making Tequila, its history & culture, sample a wide assortment of brands and learn to ‘taste & judge’ from a Tequilier Ambassadeur.” Island Way Grill is located at 20 Island Way, Clearwater, FL.

In addition, each Guest receives a VIP Admission ($50 value) to the

Polished Palate VodkaFest-with Gin

on Friday evening November 21, taking place at The RITZ Ybor.
