Bonnie Stelzer, director of community relations, at the Delray Beach Public Library, 100 W. Atlantic Ave., said a recent “Dine Out For A Cause” event at Carolina’s Coal Fired Pizza & Pasta in downtown Delray Beach was well attended.

“More than 200 people came out to support the Delray Beach Public Library and to greet volunteer celebrity chef and former mayor Jeff Perlman. The evening was filled with good food, good wine, good cheer and good friends,” Stelzer said.

Carolina’s Coal Fired Pizza & Pasta agreed to give 10 percent of the total revenue from the evening to the library.

“The Llbrary is very grateful for their support,” Stelzer said.

Library Director Alan Kornblau echoed that sentiment.

“We will unveil the next restauarant location for the July Dine Out For A Cause as well as our new celebrity chef shortly and we hope he community will continue to support this worthwhile evening out for the library during the summer months,” he said.
