A sold-out crowd experienced Taste Brookhaven on Oct. 2 at Brookhaven’s newly completed City Centre, with a dozen participating restaurants offering samples of popular dishes and curated drinks.
The event, “where the city’s vibrant food scene comes together for Taste Brookhaven, a one-night, all-inclusive celebration of flavor, art, music, and community,” offered for the first time a VIP experience that included early admission and a rooftop reception, according to a release from Explore Brookhaven.
More than 20 restaurants and other vendors were on hand to showcase Brookhaven’s food scene, said Explore Brookhaven Marketing Manager Megan Brown. People who purchased either general admission or VIP tickets will have unlimited access to food and drink, including wine, handcrafted cocktails, and local brews.
“Taste Brookhaven was a huge success,” Brown said. “Held at the new Brookhaven City Centre, the sold-out event highlighted the city’s amazing chef-driven culinary scene, all while supporting Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.”
The evening featured music from the band Lovestruck. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
“We thought it was very fitting to raise money for Children’s, as the new Arthur Blank Hospital building is located in Brookhaven,” Brown said.
