Tsunami Benefit at Kit Kat Lounge

By Erin in News on Jan 5, 2005 4:33PM

Sri Lanken-born, Kit Kat Lounge & Supper Club owner Ramesh Ariyanayakam and owner Edward Gisiger are hosting a benefit for the victims of the tsunami from 6 till 9 p.m. tomorrow night, January 6, at their 3700 N. Halsted Street restaurant.

Last year, Ariyanayakam and Gisiger opened a Kit Kat in Kuala Lumpur, though it was not impacted by the tsunami.

Absolut vodka is a co-sponsor of the event, featuring complimentary hors d'ouvres and cocktails to benefit AmeriCares. Donations of $125 are recommended, and the club will accept checks payable to AmeriCares for those who can't make the event. Call the club at (773) 525-1111 or email kitkatlounge@aol.com for more information.
