This year's 12th Annual Taste & Toast The Town benefitted the United Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County, Inc. (UCPN). The event took place at the elegant Chateau Briand in Carle Place where patrons indulged in culinary delights and libations from a myriad of restaurants, bakeries, wine and spirit establishments.

The restaurants in attendance included Fox Hollow, West End Bistro, Page One, Runyon's, Piccolo Bussola and Seasons 52.

For anyone with a sweet tooth, the American Classic Ice Cream, Sweet Karma Desserts, Cardinali Bakery, Hope's Land of Candy, Flour Girl Cakes and Wild Lizzy's were serving delectable offerings of their finest while Serendipi Tea and Coffee Distributing Corp provided warm beverages to tempt the palate.

With its 12th consecutive year in the books, Taste & Toast The Town continues to not only serve as a delightful evening, but also honors the hard work of the UCPN, an association that supports individuals and their families suffering from the effects of Cerebral Palsy.
