Black tie fundraiser at Cincinnati State

Bummer. I wish I could report back on some fabulous restaurant week finds, but I've been tied up eating home-cooked meals (and leftovers, yum!) from a bevy of Chinese aunties and uncles who've been in town lately. And I'm not sure I can make it to this black-tie fundraiser at Midwest Culinary Institute, but it sounds delicious.
