Goin’ Coastal, A Sustainable Seafood Joint
A Little Taste of Local Flavor
Rain clouds and long lines did little to dissuade local residents from coming out to experience their favorite Canton restaurant fare at last week’s Taste of Canton. With an unprecedented turnout, the large crowd shocked the event’s organizers and sent the participating vendors scrambling for more food to accommodate the increased demand. Goin’ Coastal, voted as best food at the event, doled out a hundred pounds of shrimp in less than two hours and sustained lines that spanned over forty-five minutes at some points in the evening. And for those craving something sweet, Jill’s Cakes and Bakes and Canton’s tea room Sugar Plums were both on hand with a special selection of desserts. Other highlights of the event included a live DJ with dancing in the park and a dunk tank filled with city officials, the latter of whom were pretty good sports about the whole ordeal. The proceeds of the Taste in Canton will contribute to the upcoming Great Downtown Pumpkin Festival on October 31.
The Downtown Kitchen crew serves up just rewards for their waiting fans.
