Held Saturday, August 8 from 2 to 5 p.m., Pour on the Plaza will take place at the City Center Plaza’s (450 108^th Ave. NE, Bellevue) large garden-like outdoor area, in the heart of downtown Bellevue’s Financial District.  Cost is $95 per person and reservations can be made at the restaurant’s reservation page, www.elgaucho.com/elgaucho/_bellevue/reservations.htm, or by calling (425) 255-2715. Validated self-parking is available in City Center Plaza Garage and guests must be 21 years or older.

“There aren’t many elite food and wine events in downtown Bellevue,” says Mackay Restaurant Group COO Chad Mackay. “When we moved in last winter, we saw that beautiful grassy plaza area and knew City Center Plaza was the perfect spot to have a summer food and wine event. It’s the perfect size and so convenient for us—it’s right out our front door!”
