Cheers!
My oh my, what a fall we have had! Hurricanes and rain wreaking havoc on us all with homes and businesses affected in so many ways...We do hope your recov-
ery is becoming more positive each
day and that your world becomes a
bit more normal again...
The devastation for our restaurants on the barrier islands was
just awful and if you have been out
there you know what I mean. Our
restaurants are a strong group and
hearing their many stories of structur-
al damage, loss of goods, dealing
with insurance and lack of customers
can be very disheartening. One way we can all help is by patronizing our local restaurants who need your business for so many reasons. Let them feed you and you can help feed them with your support now! Thanks...
On to this issue. In bringing some normalcy back we are doing our annual Catering and Party Issue (yes, events and gatherings are still happening), and we know you will find that special caterer, restaurant or event space in this article. Party On!
Our Going Places feature has Andy Abramson visiting Walla Walla, Washington State, for an enlightening article on this vibrant city. Andy also pens his WineScene with Effervescent Elegance: A Sparkling Toast to Festive Traditions that we know you will find informative.
Our Owner’s Profile this issue is on the amazing Suzanne Bush of Lotsa Lobster who continues to provide our area with fabu- lous lobster and seafood at her South Sarasota store! Always service with a smile there. Of course there is more and we hope you will savor this Fall/Winter edition of Taste Dining & Travel. For updates please visit our website www.tasteweb.net. Happy Holidays to you all.
