Bite of Seattle
19-Jul-2007
The annual Bite of Seattle event is coming up this weekend. The three days of sampling, classes, demonstrations, entertainment and overall enjoyment will be held at the Seattle Center as is usual. Unfortunately I have conflicts and won’t be able to partake this weekend, so I’m counting on all of you to make a good showing for me!
The Alley (scroll down) is back this year. Last year it was all Tom Douglas – which was very nice of him but sort of went against the idea of what John Hinterburger’s Alley had always been. This year it’s back to the same idea; each day six restaurants will provide one small offering. You get access to all of them with a single ticket at a price of $8.50 – by far the best way to sample your way through the bite and the best part of it that this is a charity event with all proceeds going to Food Lifeline. And even if you don’t want to go through the Alley, this year you’ll see donation spots as you enter the grounds (getting into the event is free). The suggested donation is $5 and that will also go to Food lifeline.
Besides the Alley, The Bite Cooks where chefs from around the city will do demonstrations to teach you the tricks of their trade. And of course there are beer gardens, wine gardens and multiple stages with free entertainment. So get out and enjoy the (hopefully) summer weather this weekend!

Sorry you missed it. My friends and I didn\’t do the $8.50 sampler (line too long for us hungry folks) but we did order quite a few one-platers and split them up among us. Intant sampler! I blogged about our street-food fun here in case you would like to vicariously have gone there.
Hi Jamie! Thanks for stopping by and nice to meet you! Unfortunately I was out of town (although having a lot of fun in a different way…) – glad you were able to hold up my end of the stick! I checked out your post and it sounds like you guys did it right! I\’m headed to Serious Pie on Sunday so I\’ll at least have a chance to "pretend" I was there! ;-0
