BJ’s Membership Club in Cumming will be the Taste of the Town on Saturday.
The club will welcome about a dozen Cumming restaurants and food vendors to its Market Place Boulevard location for the inaugural event.
Taste of the Town originated about two years ago at a Florida BJ’s location. This year, all eight stores in Georgia will participate.
Doors are open to the public, including non-members, and there is no charge to sample foods, said BJ’s spokeswoman Susie Meacham.
“When people come in, we give them a plate at the door and they just go around to each of the restaurants and they’ll give them a free sample,” she said.
Food vendors include Atlanta Bread, Bello Italian, CiCi’s Pizza, Creations Bakery, Edible Arrangements, Firewater Chophouse, Honey Baked Ham,
Lenny’s Sub Shop, Outback Steakhouse, Panda Express and Stars and Strikes.
The event will take place inside the store, noting that “it’s too hot to be doing this outside in Georgia.”
In addition to food, the event will include activities for children. It is anticipated that about 800 people will attend.
