YUM! A taste of Immigrant City - tonight at 7PM at the Armory on Highland Ave.

This is late notice - I've been a bad blogger, but I promise to get better.   Tonight from 7-10 at the Armory on Highland Ave. the Welcome Project will honor our own East Somerville Community School PTA with the first annual Intercultural City Award.  In addition to the well-deserved honor to be bestowed on the PTA, the YUM event will feature live entertainment and tastings from immigrant owned restaurants, including at least four from right here in the East Somerville:

Among the restaurants that will be featured at the event are East Somerville’s Fasika, Maya Sol, Los Paisanos, and Gauchao.  The variety of cuisines that these four restaurants will be serving reflects East Somerville’s cultural diversity. While Fasika will be offering Ethiopian Yé Tikil Gomen, Gauchao will serve Brazilian Churrasco and Maya Sol and Los Paisanos will offer an array of traditional Mexican dishes.

I have a School Committee meeting tonight but I plan to head right to this great event as soon as it's over.   Hope to see you there!  Tickets are $40 at the door.
