Several restaurants from Patina Restaurant Group’s Orlando-area operations (The Edison, Enzo’s Hideaway, Morimoto Asia and Space 220) on Nov. 9 participated in the 12th annual “Cows ‘n Cabs” in Winter Park, Fla. The charity fundraising event featured mini-dish tastings from more than 35 gourmet local restaurants paired with over 200 wines, craft beers and cocktails.
The event unites members of the Orlando hospitality community to raise funds for several organizations for child services in Central Florida, including After-School AllStars Orlando, 4 Roots and Winter Park Day Nursery.
“Cows ‘n Cabs raised more than $1 million for the second consecutive year to support local causes for children, and our team enjoys showcasing a taste of our amazing Patina Restaurant Group locations in Orlando,” said Yuhi Fujinaga, director of culinary for Patina Orlando. “The event also allows our team members at different locations to come together and display their food and beverage talents for a good cause.”
Patina served an array of small plates during the event, including:
- House-made Biscuits with Country Ham (The Edison)
- Butternut Squash Risotto (Enzo’s Hideaway)
- Beef Tongue Steak Bao with Black Pepper Sauce (Morimoto Asia)
- Crispy Short Rib Tacos and S’mores Tarts (Space 220)
