Tucson Foodie is hosting its second annual The Art of Plating event at Copenhagen Imports from 6:30 – 9 p.m. on Thursday, January 30.

Think beautifully presented dishes by some of Tucson’s most creative chefs, live music, heated competition, food samples, and libations. You’ll meet the whole Tucson Foodie team, local celeb judges, and sit in some pretty fancy chairs.

Mark your calendars, spread the word, proclaim it from the rooftops—it’s almost here.
