Mosto and Modo: Fundraisers for Japanese quake, tsunami victims Wednesday

Sanlitun restaurants Mosto and Modo are teaming up with seven wine distributors — China Wine & Spirits (CWS), East Meets West (EMW), Moet Hennessy, Montrose, Summergate, Torres, and The Wine Republic — next Wednesday to raise funds for survivors of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

Mosto will have a five-course dinner paired with wine at RMB490 per person. Modo will serve seven small plates for sharing with free-flow wine, both red and white, at RMB390 per person.

One hundred percent of the revenue will go to WFP (United Nations World Food Program) and CFPA (China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation), says PR director Christina Riglet.

There are a lot of charity events in Beijing and posting about all of them is beyond the scope of this blog, but if these two dinners next Wednesday are anything like this one at Mosto last year that raised nearly RMB36,000 for Haiti relief, they will be among the best.

You can reserve a space by calling Modo (6415-7207) or Mosto at (5208-6030). The meals are available from 6 PM to 10:30 PM.
