On Tuesday, July 15, the big white tent is set up for Harbor Days the coming weekend and food is already filling all available corners for this year’s “Taste the Town” event at Shipyard Park in Mattapoisett. The event, hosted by The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club, saw many local restaurants and food vendors come to one location to allow visitors to get a quick taste of a wide-array of different flavors offered in the area.
Tables were filled, but within the tent and without, and those with plates had plates of filled with seafood, Chinese food, pizza, burgers, soups, and many other options. Some even sat on the rocks behind the tent, looking out at the harbor. The Showstoppers were also present, singing and showing their prowess with soloists, duos, and full-group performances.
The event went from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm where many trickled in to munch on local treats, chat, and listen to the music.
