The annual Taste of West Seattle, a benefit event that helps support the programs for West Seattle Helpline blew past last year's total raised of $63,000 by raising $70,000 and still counting.
The Taste of West Seattle is a local, community-based food fair and is the largest event of its kind in West Seattle. This year's Taste featured food and drink from 40 different restaurants, breweries, wineries, coffee shops, bakeries, chocolatiers, and more-all from right here in West Seattle.
The winners of the event voted on by those attending were:
Best Sweet 2017: Stuffed Cakes
Best Pour 2017: The Westy
Best Taste 2017: Fresh Bistro
Executive Director Chris Lengler said, "We are so grateful for the restaurants, the volunteers, our sponsors, and everyone who joined us last night for the 12th Taste of West Seattle! We raised enough funds to help more than 200 families stay safely housed while they recover from crisis. We are so lucky to be part of our wonderful West Seattle community!"
