Taste of the Nation, one of the truly best food events of the year, is this Sunday in Culver City Media Park. It is your opportunity to eat and drink like a king, while also helping to fight childhood hunger in Los Angeles. Tickets bought in advance are a mere $100 ($125 at the door, $150 for VIP), which is less than you wind up spending for dinner at may of the restaurants participating at the event, even before tax and tip. One hundred percent of the ticket sales go to Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, St. Joseph's Center, Los Angeles Coalition to End Hunger and Homelessness, and California Food Policy Advocates.

Participating restaurants include Bazaar, Lucques, Mozza, Nobu, Rivera and many, many more.

Taste of the Nation: Sunday, June 6th, 1-4 p.m. in the Culver City Media Park. Buy tickets here.
