The Charlottesville 29

Here is your chance to experience Bizou like you never have before, while helping to feed the area’s hungry: The Charlottesville 29 Restaurant Auctions. Bizou has created a once-in-a-lifetime experience for whoever pledges the highest donation to The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. Thanks to the generosity of Bizou, the entire winning bid goes directly to the food bank. And, thanks to the efficiency of the food bank, each dollar donated creates four meals for the area’s hungry.

The Bizou signature experience for The Charlottesville 29 Restaurant Auctions:

Meatloaf for Four, for a Year

In Bizou’s early days, it ran a “Sorry, Mom” ad campaign, as in “Sorry, Mom, we’re going to Bizou tonight.” Win the Bizou auction, and you will be apologizing to mom all year long for choosing Bizou over her cooking. Anytime you want, you may walk into Bizou and pick up a meal-to-go featuring one of Charlottesville’s signature dishes: Bizou’s “Classic Meatloaf.”

The meal-to-go will be enough meatloaf to feed four people, along with smashed potatoes, chipotle ketchup, and vegetables. Don’t have a family? Bring it home to host a delicious dinner with friends anytime you want. Tell them to bring the wine — you’ll provide the food.

It’s the ultimate Bizou experience: Meatloaf for Four, for a Year.

Note: The auction item is not transferable, and must be picked up in person by the auction winner. Limited to one use per day.
