PORT TOWNSEND — Some 220 people tasted the cuisine at 12 Port Townsend restaurants during the 22nd annual “Taste of Port Townsend” last week.
Lucas Hart of Port Townsend won the Tasty Prize drawing, valued at $200, said Mari Mullen, Main Street executive director, adding that Hart visited all 12 restaurants on Thursday’s tour.
Included in the Tasty Prize are gift certificates for Muskan Indian Restaurant, Khu Larb Thai/Little Rose, Perfect Dreams Cupcakes, The Silverwater Cafe, The Apothecarium, The Boiler Room and The Food Co-op, as well as tickets to the 2013 edition of “Taste of Port Townsend.”
Each ticket listed the participating restaurants, with space for a stamp from each.
Tickets turned in with six or more stamps were entered to win the Tasty Prize.
Also participating in the tour of eateries were Banana Leaf Thai Bistro, Necesito Burrito, Fins Coastal Cuisine, Jordini’s and the Undertown Coffee and Wine Bar.
Most of those who participated in the fundraiser for the Port Townsend Main Street program were from Port Townsend, Mullen said, but some traveled from Port Hadlock, Quilcene, Nordland, Sequim, Port Ludlow, Port Angeles, Silverdale, Seattle, Bainbridge Island, Bellingham and Kingston, as well as a few from California, Oregon and Texas.
New this year was the online purchase of advance tickets, something that saved 150 people $5 per ticket.
There were $300 tickets available for the self-guided tour.
