downtown kitchen + cocktails

It’s going to be a all day effort to get the huge moving van filled with food donations.

If you’ve got a busy schedule, but would still like to donate to the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona, you can do so online. In addition, the first $25,000 in monetary donations will be matched by Tucson Electric Power.

Great specials on rotating menus of tapas, local brew flights, wines by the glass, their award-winning prickly pear margaritas, and — back by popular demand — the sous vide pork belly, cream pea purée, knob creek brown sugar glazed carrots, and fresh apples.

The dinner is in conjunction with TSO’s performance of Beethoven’s Fifth, and is also a celebration of the great composer’s birthday. Beethoven was born in 1770, but his actual birth date has never been a sure thing among historians.

However, you can surely bet on the delicious food coming out of BOCA’s kitchen.

Before the catching the performance at Tucson Music Hall, the taco shop on Fourth Ave. is holding a dinner featuring tacos, a “BOCA Ball,” and beer.

All you have to do is choose the $15 add-on to your Beethoven’s Fifth ticket.
