Taste of the Nation is a grazing party on steroids — dozens of the city’s top restaurants convene in a tent so big you might need a map to plan your eating route. The new and old guard of Toledo’s dining scene will be out in full force (everyone from Revolution Grille to Mancy’s Steakhouse), and there will also be an opportunity to try the stand-out modern Italian cuisine of celebrity guest chef Nicholas Stefanelli of D.C. restaurant Bibiana Osteria Enoteca. The event draws hundreds of foodies every year, so although the big day isn’t until Sunday, April 21, invest in tickets now before they sell out. “Restaurants in Toledo are becoming more innovative,” says Alli McMaster, ticket chair. “It’s never going to be ordinary.” Tickets are $150 per person for unlimited food, drink and dancing opportunities to the music of The Bridges, with $110 of the price eligible to be used as a tax write-off as proceeds benefit local charities. 5-10pm. The Toledo Club, 235 14th St. 419-345-5543. toledotaste.org. —AO
