dining out for life 2017The annual Dining Out for Life event returns this Thursday (April 27) at restaurants all around the Capital Region. The event is a fundraiser for the Alliance for Positive Health (formerly the AIDS Council of Northeast New York).

The event has a fiendishly-complicated setup. Here all the steps:

1. Go out to eat at one of the participating restaurants.

2. There is no step two.

Yep, that's it. The participating restaurants will donate a portion of their checks from that day to the Alliance. You don't have do anything else. Well... you could also make a donation while you're there or later on. There will be envelopes at the restaurants. Look for one of the Alliance ambassadors if you don't see them.

Here's the list of participating restaurants -- many of participating for both lunch and dinner.

Some of the restaurants get busy that night, so reservations are a good idea.
