Taste of Somerville

The Taste of Somerville is an event that happens every May to benefit Respond, which is a great local organization that works to end domestic violence. Taste of Somerville raises money by us buying tickets and eating (and drinking) until we can eat no more delicious somerville foods! This is our second year attending, and everything was amazing. There was a great oyster bar from Island Creek Oysters, a make your own s’mores bar and chocolate station from the Holiday Inn (which is also where the event is held), delicious treats from Lyndell’s, delicious shrimp tacos from Old Magoon’s Saloon, and delicious gazpacho from Casa B. And grilled delicious kielbasa from Bronwyn! And that’s just to name a few. We ended up with some delicious bread to bring home from Piantedosi Bread Shoppe, and we sampled some there, and it was amazing. Also there for 2013: Eat at Jumbos (love those guys!), Daddy Jones, The Independent, Redbones, El Potro, the soon to be at Assembly Row in 2014: JP Licks, and many, MANY more awesome restaurants.
Go next year in 2014-​it supports such a great cause, and it’s an awesome way to spend a May evening! Read more about Respond here:
