On Sunday, September 22, DISH will dish out food and drinks from dozens of Cafe Society's favorite restaurants and trucks, as well as Best of Denver readers' winners, in the Sculpture Park at the Denver Performing Arts Complex. The Hornet will be on-site, serving its popular lobster-and-bacon mac and cheese. The restaurant will also be dishing out bread pudding for dessert.

The lobster mac and cheese -- lobster, bacon, pasta, cheddar, fontina, cream and prosciutto -- has been a staple on the Baker neighborhood restaurant's menu for over a decade. And the recipe for the bread pudding was developed eighteen years ago.

Give the Hornet a taste at DISH, which runs from 1:30 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Sunday 22. (VIP ticket-holders get in at noon -- but those tickets are sold out.)
