This year’s annual Taste of Uptown Hillcrest event is going to be more spectacular than ever! With over 40 participating restaurants and a new coinciding Sidewalk Sale, the Uptown/Hillcrest area will be alive with local flavor.

Ticket holders will be able to taste rare and new dishes from some of the area’s best-known eateries, including new participants such as Aladdin Restaurant, Big City Bagels, Chef’s Wok, Terra Restaurant and Bar, St. Tropez Bakery and Bistro, Rannoosh Mediterranean Cuisine, and Viva Pasta.

I am so excited about the taste of Hillcrest. Definitely looking forward to Aladdin, heard so much good stuff about the restaurant but never had a chance to try it. Also looking forward to Amarin Thai Cuisine…one of my favorite thai place in SD.

Money NOT well spent.
I was so excited about this event.
I would think this is a marketing for all the participating restaurants so all the restaurants would prepare something that is representation of what they offer. No. Some of the nice restaurants prepared something very “dinky”. For example, Kimosabe is one of more sophisticated restaurants and what did they serve? Brownie with icecream. I had more expectation from the this award-winning restaurant. Others like a lebanese restaurant Ranoosh served a quarter size ball of falafel. What is that about??? I have much more to say about other restaurants too, but I won’t go into that.
One more thing, alot of the places run out of food! It was only 3 oclock! This event was supporsed to be till 4.
My boyfriend and I eat out alot. Thus at this event, I was expecting to try out all the new restaurant and get feel of them. Well, I was disappointed.
