Spotted @ the LifeSavor Gala

May 8 at the Langham Hotel

Spotted attended the 22d Annual Community Servings LifeSavor event at the Langham Hotel. The Financial District hotel hosted a cocktail reception and silent auction for 900 guests before attendees were taken to 80 restaurants in Greater Boston for intimate dinner parties. The event raised money for Community Servings, a not-for-profit food and nutrition program geared toward supporting Massachusetts individuals and families in need.

Since the entire night was focused on food, we asked guests: If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life — with no negative consequences on your health — what would it be and why?
