It rained this morning, yet the Taste still went on!
Shortly after noon, we headed over to the Children's Wharf Park - the grassy area on the opposite end of the giant milk bottle - and there was already a crowd of people making the rounds around the tables with their displays and food samplings. Even the sailboats were out providing free rides, courtesy of the Piers Park Sailing Center.
No, the weather did not discourage the hungry from a free meal!
Although several of the tables were unmanned when we went by them (ie. The Daily Catch, Flour Bakery & Cafe), there was still food aplenty! From appetizers (ie. tuna tartar on tortilla chip, salad) and soups (ie. potato leek soup, gazpacho, two clam chowders), to the filling (ie. sandwiches, pizzas, calzone, pasta, chili, chicken pesto pilaf), with liquid thirst quenchers (ie. cocoa, ginger peach tea), and a bit of sweets (ie. cookies, ice cream, carrot cake), there were lots to choose from. But why choose? You could have them all!
The top taste, however, may have been the super-moist carrot cake provided by Gloria's Kitchen, which is located inside the Boston Athletic Club on Summer Street.
I loved how along with the trash cans scattered about, they had two cheerful ladies wandering about with trash bags in hand, collecting our litter.
