Are you ready for an

adventure?

Join us in 2021 for an adventure that includes 13 of Naples’s most popular restaurants and their top chefs! Options include dining in (outdoor, high air flow areas) or takeout with your safety in mind.

The Covid-19 Pandemic has affected many members of our community. Some of our most vulnerable residents have experienced severe food insecurity and need your help. The culinary community and our wonderful Naples restaurants have suffered as well.

Our event provides support for the restaurants and also helps fund grants from the Naples Woman’s Club to local agencies to address hunger and food shortages for those in need.
