QUICK BITES
Indulge your dessert fantasies Nov. 6

Advertiser Staff

If you're going to eat dessert — and you know you will — at least let it be for a good cause: Spend an indulgent Sunday afternoon at Dessert Fantasy, 1 to 3 p.m. Nov. 6 in the Grand Ballroom at the Pacific Beach Hotel. The event benefits the United Cerebral Palsy Association of Hawai'i. Tickets are $25 (children under 5 free). Buy eight tickets for $200 and receive two extra tickets free.

Another fundraising option by United Cerebral Palsy: the Group Gourmet Luncheon, 11 a.m. Oct. 23 in Neptune's Garden at the Pacific Beach Hotel, where $100 (or $500 for a table of 6) gets you a multi-course luncheon paired with wines, plus tickets, early admission and VIP seating at Dessert Fantasy. Tickets for either event: 532-6744 or www.ucpahi.org.
