“Great event!! Was great being able to try some things from places we might not otherwise try.”
“I live close enough to Uptown that I should have visited some of these places before, but this event really allowed me to sample and see how great the food choices really are in Uptown…I really had no idea! And I will be going back. Do it again next year please.”
“It was a great way to meet neighbors and sample local businesses. Everything was so tasty.”
“I just moved to Uptown and it was like a crash course on the area. I really liked that it was kind of a walking tour, which is unique for these “Taste” events. Will definitely be back out there next year.”
