Mary Bilyeu, food editor for The Blade, will be a special guest waiter. Other guild members and notable folks from the community are organizing tables as waiters, and they will be working hard to earn "tips" -- donations to the guild's efforts to support the Toledo Opera.
A cash bar will be available and live music will entertain guests.

Mixed greens, tomatoes and gorgonzola cheese tossed in white balsamic vinaigrette
Choice of Entrees:
Cheese Manicotti: rolled pasta filled with herbed ricotta and topped with marinara, alfredo and pesto sauces
New York Strip Steak: 12-ounce center-cut choice steak topped with porcini mushroom butter sauce and served with seasonal vegetables and potato lasagna
Lake Superior Whitefish: fillet sauteed with crunchy pecan-polenta crust topped with porcini mushroom butter sauce and balsamic glaze and served with seasonal vegetables
Chicken Marsala: sauteed and flamed with Marsala wine, wild mushrooms and shallots and served with seasonal vegetables
