As part of the nationwide Food Day celebration, Friday October 26th will mark the inaugural Montclair Fall Food Classic to benefit The Salvation Army hot meal program at the Citadel in Montclair.

A seasonal light lunch will be served from a menu devised by two of NJ's finest restaurants—the Orange Squirrel and Osteria Giotto—with ingredients generously donated by Kings Food Markets as part of their Act Against Hunger initiative.

Admission will be by ticket only and are available in advance from The Salvation Army, 13 Trinity Place, Montclair NJ 07042 – contact Michele Kroeze telephone (973) 744-3312 ext. 4651 or email michele.kroeze@use.salvationarmy.org

The suggested minimum is $15.

The event is the brainchild of two Montclair Salvation Army volunteers: Caroline Clarke and Lisa Davies (of thislittlepiggywenttothefarmersmarket.com) who, with winter just around the corner, decided it would be a good way to raise funds to replenish the food supplies that feed Montclair's hungry every week.

Said Lisa: “Food Day provides the ideal opportunity to highlight and celebrate the good work that The Salvation Army does week in, week out in our community, feeding the hungry and homeless”.

Chefs Robert Pantusa (Osteria Giotto) and Francesco Palmieri (Orange Squirrel) were both “delighted” to be involved and contribute their gorgeous seasonal fare.
