Mustachio Bashio Gives Good Food for a Good Cause

Furry faces raising money for Community Servings.

 

On February 29, celebrate the Leap Year by rubbing elbows with the fuzziest top lips in the Back Bay at the Mustachio Bashio held at City Table from 6-9p.

The third annual fete is a culmination of a full month of brave, clean-shaven folks abandoning their razors in favor of raising funds for Community Servings, a not-for-profit which delivers nutritious meals to those homebound by illness. The participants have been growing ’staches since February 1, so expect some pretty spectacular face rugs.

At the Mustachio Bashio, you’ll get the chance to see some of the ‘stache masters in person, a list of which you can find right here so you can throw some bones their way to a) help a good cause, and b) thank them for their facial sacrifices, because you know that had to be itchy, sometimes awkward-looking work.

Your ticket gains you admittance into the fuzzy-faced event, where you can enjoy complimentary mustache-inspired cocktails with Reyka Vodka, Hendrick's Gin and Brugal Rum; brews from Sam Adams; vino from Cono Sur and Tilia; hors d’oeuvres by City Table’s Chef Dennis Wilson and Brugal Rum cupcakes from Kickass Cupcakes.

Plus, at only $50, your donation will feed a critically ill neighbor for two full weeks – and $30 of it is tax-deductible. Even if you can’t attend in person, you can still make a donation here.

Guests who arrive mustachioed will be entered into a special raffle for a chance to win a fabulous prize. And if you didn’t have time to grow a mustache or if you’re among the follicularly challenged (know what I’m saying, ladies?), you can cheat a little and make use of a fauxstache and still be eligible.

All in all, the Mustachio Bashio is a fun night for a great cause – and so, I mustache you to give them some support and go gawk at all the handlebars, Dalis, Fu Manchus, and Magnum P.I.s you can handle.
