Restaurants, home cooks host fundraising dinners for Martha’s Table

Think of it as a more affordable Sips & Suppers: The inaugural One Pot Supper Evening parties will bring together friends and family on Sunday to raise money for Martha's Table, the nonprofit dedicated to feeding and clothing the poorest of Washingtonians.

As opposed to the elaborate Sips & Suppers events, which can run $600 for a chef-driven meal prepared at a private residence, the One Pot Supper meal will be free. With an asterisk, of course. Those invited to the private-home dinners will be asked to make a donation to Martha's Table.
