The Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce To Host The 2021 Taste of the Town - Restaurant Month, Jan 4 – 31, 2021

THE WOODLANDS, TX - The 2021 Taste of the Town event has evolved with the uncertainty of 2020, changing in honor of a new year. Starting Jan. 4, 2021, guests can help support the community and the local restaurant industry by visiting area restaurants to enjoy a sampling, or “taste” of mouth-watering appetizers, entrees, and desserts at more than 40 of the most acclaimed restaurants in the Greater Woodlands Area, all month long, for one small fee of $25.

Taste of the Town 2021 Restaurant Month will allow guests to discover unfamiliar restaurants, support their current favorites, and promote local business for our town's most devoted establishments that have been so severely affected by the events of 2020. Guests can purchase individual or group package tickets at www.tastofthetown.org - the perfect holiday gifts. Each ticket allows one person to enter once into every participating restaurant to receive exclusive tastes of excellent dishes and chef-created off-menu items.

"Taste of The Town is such a fantastic event," said past attendee and owner of The Woodlands/Spring Foodies Club, Kerry Stessel. "It's the perfect opportunity for restaurants to gain exposure to our community and get connected with area residents."

"One of the best food events every year in The Woodlands! 34 years strong and gets better! Any foodies dream sampling," said Nick Rama with Nick's Local Eats.

"One of my favorite things about Taste of the Town is discovering restaurants I've never been to or heard of.  Case in point, I had never heard of Bazille. A few years ago, they served tuna poke at Taste of the Town.  It was so good I found out where they were located and have been a customer since” Paco R.

“This has always been one of our family’s favorite events. Having been an attendee for the past ten years, it is a huge privilege and honor to be part of the amazing planning team to bring you the new Taste Around the Town. We are a town of foodies, and we love to celebrate the diversity in our community through food.” -Jen Moore, Moore of Everything
