It’s
hard to believe...but it finally feels like summer in Seattle.
And with summer, come local Ranier cherries, peaches, sweet
Vidalia onions...and a new food and cultural tour of Downtown
Seattle! If you
like to eat gourmet eats and drinks (I’m not talking about
Kool-Aid), you are in for a real treat.
Along with our expansion, it is my pleasure
to introduce you to three Savor Seattle tour guides! Meet
Tim, Stephanie, and Eric. Hailing from all corners of the
country, they are the happy faces that you will see toting
pink umbrellas around town. Learn more about our quirky band
of foodies here.
While you’re at it, sneak a peak at our
brand new website.
Check out all the new bells and whistles!
Bon Appetit,

Then join us as we go behind the scenes to explore the
gourmet side of Seattle! Wind your way through
tree-line streets of downtown Seattle and Pike Place Market,

and famous neighborhood restaurants.
In addition to the tastings, you will also go underground
to see a micro-brewery and gelato-maker in action. Meet the
hard-working people behind the food, and hear their stories
and secrets of the trade. Learn about the history, culture,
and entertainment offerings that make downtown Seattle a
premiere destination for visitors and residents alike! |
