For the Secret Pop Up Dinner, all of the ticket sales will benefit House of Bread in Dayton. A cash bar featuring Lily's seasonal signature cocktails will be available.
"House of Bread is open seven days a week, all year long for lunches to those in need," Mendenhall said. "Taking this day that we're normally closed to benefit their work is something we're all excited to do."
House of Bread is a charitable, non-profit organization that addresses hunger in our community by offering a free, hot and nutritious lunchtime meal as well as access to various resources.
