CityTv's Taste of the City

foodcrazed · 06-03-2008, 03:47 PM

CityTv's Taste of the City is coming up on July 19, 2008 from 12-8pm at PNE.
Kinda curious bout the event since I have to work there that day.
Has anyone ever gone to this? Last yr was the first time I'd heard of it, but its already in its 6th year.
2 dozen restaurants set up a booth and serve samples of their food.
Tickets are in .50cent denominations and get traded in for food. Each dish ranges from 1.00-4.00.
CityTv's Simi Sara hosts on the presentation stage with a bunch of chef demonstrations.

Even if you don't go for the food (because its free admission), at least u'll enjoy a nice summer day out at PNE.

WOW. I've been looking for this event every where.
I thought it was at the Plaza of Nations so I never really found what I was looking for.
I'm definitely planning to go.

It used to be at Plaza of Nations but switched over to PNE a yr or two ago.

Wow, I didn't know it was so soon. It's too bad that I can't go :(

And I thought there were usually more restaurants involved? I might be getting different food events mixed up though, there seems like there are so many in this city, haha.

I went around 2pm and it was busy, but not that busy that it made you want to leave. Some of the lineups were a bit long and it was really hot, but when you stood in the shade it felt like 10 degrees cooler! It was my first time going and I think it was fun to check out. The food was decent sized portions as well =)

glad you guys had fun! the lineups really slow down after 6ish. I didn't even line up for food at 2pm cuz everyone was there eating lunch! marble slab gave away free icecream at the end!
