While Goff is distracted by good food, I sneak in my review of Taste of Main Street

To the few souls who checked out my 1 liner earlier on the Taste of Main Street, thanks. It has been deleted and tossed into the recycling bin of cyberspace.

Yes, I used Goff's name to get you to read my review first! I left him sampling a wild salmon cake at the Eureka Coop, my last stop today at my most favorite event sponsored by Eureka Main Street. My favorite there, the lemon spinach quinoa.

All participating vendors were great but I only had time for my favorite local businesses. I started out my evening at the Black Lightining Motorcycle Cafe and enjoyed a bull taco panini sample and cleansed my palate for the next stop with a delicious fruit smoothie sample.

All the food listed below is sample sized portion but our local businesses are very generous.

Next was bbq pork sliders at 511, spanakopita at Oberon Grill, marinated grilled chicken with black bean and corn slaw from Mike's Southside Bbq at Humboldt Hardware and then a club wrap at Wolf Dawg.

Then a hearty walk to Bella Baskets where Boujie Baking Co and Humboldt Hot Sauce tantalized my tastebuds. The beer infused treats from Boujie were a sacrifice I made for the noble cause of getting out this important information on local businesses.

I was thirsty so I headed down to Lost Coast Brewery to get my annual Dirty Kitty customized beer combo. There were 2 more stops I had to make. Surfside Burger Shack for some carbs and then Bless My Soul Cafe for Mama Janisse's sticky love coconut chicken.

I was full and had not even been to all the places. At several places, I passed on some selections.

Best couple of the night award goes to both Chief Andy Mills and his wife and Lt. Steve Knight and his wife. I also ran into 2 if the biggest champions of local business, Gregg Foster and Emily Jacobs.

Fun night, great food, terrific way to support Old town businesses.
