Menu for Hope '07

Menu For Hope '07 annual raffle has begun and we're a bit late off the mark.

What is Menu for Hope?

It's when food bloggers from all over the world join together, and take leave from our usual obsession with our own stomachs. Throughout the year, we tend to wank on about food, beer, wine and other such visceral pleasures, but for two weeks every December, we pull together a bunch of excellent prizes and ask you, our readers, to help us support those who are not so lucky, to whom food is not a mere indulgence but a matter of survival. This Menu for Hope is our small way to help.

All proceeds go to the World Food Program

Gut Feelings and all our excellent and gracious friends have managed to add to the global prize pool....prizes are:

    That really is an impressive prize haul. Thanks all!

     

    I will be in Bangkok January 2009--would I still be able to redeem these prizes then? Thanks!

     

    sure, I don't see why not
