EatingNowSquare-150x150 [title type="h5"]Steak Dinner at Charlie's To Battle Type 1 Diabetes.[/title] Wednesday next week, November 5, Charlie's Steak House hosts its annual dinner in support of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Little more that needs to be said, right? Anyone who's known a child with diabetes can sympathize. And it's too common. I have a niece and two nephews who suffer, and one of my best friends in high school died of it. Anyone who's ever been to Charlie's knows what this dinner will consist of. Yes, a big pile of the best onion rings in town, a wedge salad with blue cheese, a large filet mignon, potatoes au gratin, mushrooms bordelaise, mammoth French fries, dessert, coffee, tea, wine, beer, cocktails, and soft drinks. It's the classic Charlie's dinner, with all the sizzle for which the old Uptown beefmonger is famous.

The price is $75, inclusive of tax, tip, and all beverages. All the proceeds will benefit the JDRF and its search for a cure. Here's the organization's website if you're curious as to what it's about.

Two seatings: 5:30 and 8:30 p.m. Reservations are essential: 504-895-9323.
