Every other year the Sarcoma Alliance of Orange County (CA) holds a benefit auction to raise money for the families and those afflicted with this horrible form of cancer. Sarcoma is a soft tissue cancer that afflicts many of us, our friends and our family members every year. In support of this great and worth wild cause I offer a in-home dinner for 10 at this auction and it gets snapped up every year.

Well tonight is the night for this years lucky bidder and since the menu is Thai, I thought it would be fun to post the menu that I am doing this evening up in Newport Beach.
