SUMMARY:The Tenth Annual Taste of Sri Lanka
DESCRIPTION:The Annual Taste of Sri Lanka Fundraising Dinner with Auction and Entertainment is set for March 30. This year\, due to the popularity of the event\, it is being hosted at the Dole Mansion in Crystal Lake to raise funds for the Blue Lotus Temple remodeling project. The Dole is at 401 Country Club Road in Crystal Lake\, about 10 minutes from the Temple. \nThe dinner begins at 5 p.m.\, but Silent Auction items will be on display in an adjoining room before and during the dinner.  There will be a short Live Auction after the entertainment and the announcement of Silent Auction high bids. \nThe menu of Sri Lankan favorite dishes\, prepared this year by a Sri Lankan chef\, will include the exotic spices\, fruits and vegetables that make this cuisine so appealing and adventurous. There are dishes for every taste—ultra spicy or mild\, vegan or vegetarian\, as well as dishes with fish and chicken\, and cooling desserts to delight every palate. \nThe Temple is excited to announce the special performance this year of Gary DeVar\, a performance artist and mime who has been delighting audiences for over 30 years. As a mime\, Gary has performed at the White House\, the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament and the Tournament of Roses Parade.

Attendees may sit on a cushion on the floor\, or in a chair. (Shoes must removed before entering the Dhamma Hall.)
