Hingham’s Tosca Raising Money for the Hungry

Tosca, in downtown Hingham, is among a growing list of local restaurants that will participate in the Super Hunger Brunch later this month, raising money to pay for meals for the hungry.

The event, Jan. 25 and 26, is sponsored by The Greater Boston Food Bank. Nearly 20 restaurants have signed on so far, and diners can choose sweet and savory dishes from menus designed especially for Super Hunger Brunch weekend.

Prices are set at $25, $35 and $50 per person and for every dollar spent, three nutritious meals will be provided to our neighbors in need.

“We’re pleased to have so many members of the Bay State’s food community participate in Super Hunger Brunch again this year,” Catherine D’Amato, GBFB President and Chief Executive Officer, said in a statement. 

“As always, we are most grateful for their time, talents and contributions to this important fundraising event for GBFB,” she added.

In 2013, more than 1,700 people participated in Super Hunger Brunch, raising enough funds to provide 183,000 meals to men, women, children, families, senior citizens and veterans in 190 cities and towns throughout eastern Massachusetts.  

Chefs Jody Adams of Rialto and Trade, Gordon Hamersley of Hamersley’s Bistro, Mary Dumont of Harvest Restaurant, Andy Husbands of Tremont 647 and Sister Sorel, Tony Maws of Craigie on Main, Frank McClelland of L’Espalier, Ming Tsai of Blue Ginger and Blue Dragon and Brooke Vosika of The Bristol Lounge at Four Seasons Hotel Boston are longtime champions of The Greater Boston Food Bank and serve on the Super Hunger Brunch Culinary Committee.
