Taste of Cambridge - A Little Bit About a Lot of Things A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

July 20, 2015 Taste of Cambridge

Taste of Cambridge was this past Thursday evening. My new friend Kayte invited me to tag along with her! The doors opened at 5:30pm and the VIP line rivaled the regular admission line. Once we were inside, there was a special VIP area, where we quickly headed for some much needed drinks. Then we walked around and scoped out what was what. The Dirty Water Brass Band provided the entertainment and were pretty awesome.

Check out this short clip (above), complete with dancing rooster.

There were tons of delicious things to eat at the event – we tried hard to pace ourselves. Some places that we really enjoyed were Art Bar (top row, far left) with their shrimp and corn tacos, Veggie Galaxy (bottom row, far right) with their vegan coconut lemon passionfruit cake, Formaggio Kitchen (bottom row, middle) serving up Pagliernino cheese, Bisq, Moksa (middle row, far left), Patty Chen’s Dumpling Room, and Tavern in the Square (middle row, far right) with their chorizo beef sliders.

There were a good number of vendors at the event. Lines were long, but moved quickly and were worth the wait. Tickets were $50 and $75 for VIP. VIP included access to a private lawn area that stayed open 30 minutes later than the general admission area.

Kayte might be one the coolest chicks I know. We met a few weeks back – she works for Zomato, who just bought UrbanSpoon. The sarcasm and witty banter was at an all time high – added bonus that she is willing to take ridiculous photos for my amusement. #goodsport

Don’t ask…

St. Elder, an Elderflower liquor, was mixing up cocktails, just perfect for a warm summer evening. It’s light and sweet, fresh and citrus flavored with a hint of floral. Try mixing it with champagne, so delicious!
