Tonight's The Night: Eat Out for Nashville

Eat Out for Nashville is a grass roots effort started by Doug Hogrefe of Amerigo and Chris Chamberlain of Bites to help raise money for the Community Foundation Metro Nashville Disaster Relief Fund. It all started with an email on May 5th simply asking the blogger community to help promote a fundraiser of sorts. The idea was to have participating restaurants offer up 50% of one nights proceeds to the flood relief fund. Twitter and Facebook accounts were setup and the momentum began to grow. In just a 12 day period EOfN has signed up 54 restaurants to participate. To see the list just head over to the Bites website and remember Tonight's The Night. So get out there and eat eat eat.
