TAMPA, Fla. (WFTS) — Eat well. Do good. Words to live and eat by!
For the month of September, the iconic 1905 Family of Restaurants — we're talking the Columbia, Ulele, Casa Santo Stefano and more, all across Florida — will donate 5% of every bill to almost 100 nonprofits in the state.

That's right, we're talking guilt-free eating at no extra cost to the diner.
But wait, their "Community Harvest" event — now celebrating its 29th year of giving back — gets even cooler.
When diners are ready to check out, they get to pick which charity they want to benefit. They'll be given a checklist of local do-gooders from which to choose.
Tampa Bay 28 reporter Sean Daly recently visited (and ate a lot of the famous seafood risotto) at Ulele on the Tampa Riverwalk, where he chatted up fifth-generation owner Andrea Gonzmart Williams about this annual event.
