Taste of Cardiff

13th Annual Taste of Cardiff

May 2, 5:30-8:30pm

Cardiff 101 Main Street presents the 13th Annual Taste of Cardiff from 5:30 to 8:30pm on May 2. The community is invited to celebrate local culinary flavors and crafted libations that make Cardiff-by-the-Sea so unique. There are food samples, drinks, and live musical performances.

More than 14 local restaurants are whipping up divine tastes for guests’ enjoyment and votes. During the event, guests can help name the winner of the coveted Morgan Mallory Golden Fork Award. Sip Stops offer samples of North County’s finest beer, wine, cocktails in a can, Kombucha, hard seltzers, and coffee. Each Sip Stop is hosted by a local business, which means that guests have a chance to check out Cardiff shops as well. Recent participating eateries included VG Donut and Bakery, East Coast Pizza, Pizza Port, Ashland Hard Seltzer, and Duckfoot Brewing Company.

Tickets are now available, and it is recommended to purchase them early, as this event sells out quickly. Visitors are encouraged to walk, bike, or Uber/Lyft to the event. Electra Bicycle Company is sponsoring a bike valet at the corner of Chesterfield Drive and San Elijo Avenue. Parking is not permitted in Cardiff Town Center, but there is parking available at the Plastino Building at 2533 S. Coast Highway 101. For more information or tickets, visit www.cardiff101.com.
