DINNER DANCE 2016

PUERTO VALLARTA Nov 26, 2016:  Taste Restaurant at Casa Cupula is pleased to announce that it will host the 2nd Annual Amapas Neighborhood Association Dinner Dance “Homecoming” Thursday, December 1, 2016.

The annual Dinner Dance is already the social event of the season for members of the ANA and friends.  This year’s theme is “Homecoming”, recognizing that the ANA is welcoming back many part-year residents from the US and Canada for the winter season.

“Last year’s inaugural Dinner Dance was successful beyond our greatest ​expectations,” said Robin Spencer, ANA’s Events Manager and Board Member. “This year’s guests will be treated to a four course dinner with dessert, welcome drink, wine and hors d’oeuvres prepared by Taste’s amazing chefs. Musical entertainment will be by the amazing Paul Fracassi.  We’ll also have a DJ so there will be dancing all night”.

Taste’s Creative Mexican Cuisine will begin with a Cupula Salad and Cream of Poblano Soup, and includes a choice of Chile en Nogada or Lamb Mixiote as the main course, with a platter of Huitlacoche Risotto. A dessert sampler platter will top off the experience which is being provided at cost to the ANA by Taste.

A cruise aboard the party boat “Tequila Sunrise” with catered lunch by Robin Spencer will be auctioned off to benefit the ANA. Everyone attending will receive corsages and boutonnieres by Flowers to Go, as well as a gift bag with great prizes.  Each individual or couple attending will be professionally photographed by Josef Kandoll Wepplo at the event’s “Step and Repeat”.

The Amapas Neighborhood Association is one of Puerto Vallarta’s largest and most active neighborhood associations.  With over 400 members, the Association’s goal is to improve the quality of life in Amapas, focusing on security, infrastructure, responsible development and member social events.  “This year we took on our largest project ever, to repave a major section of Calle Hortencias, now in process,” said Tom Swale, ANA’s President.  “We just opened a new office at 111-3 Rodolfo Gomez to better serve our members, and provide space for our many meetings with city officials.”

Tickets are a $1,900.00 peso donation, and include everything – even tax and tip!
