Taste of the Wasatch 2016 menu

All good things must change. Taste of the Wasatch is no different and this year sees some fantastic changes to the beverage selections.

First and foremost, the wine offerings have undergone reorganizing and upgrading for the 2016 event under the watchful eye of Libation, Inc. owner Francis Fecteau. Reserved seat ticket holders are invited to arrive at 11 a.m. for an hour of mingling with winemakers and tasting their special selections. At noon, all attendees will be served from a central wine tent just outside the reserved seating area.

In addition to wine, local beer selections have also increased. Enjoy brews from Wasatch/Squatters, Uinta Brewing, Desert Edge Brewery and our friends from down south–Moab Brewery.

The event has also switched up the coffee selection and will be featuring Logan’s Caffe Ibis this year!

See, change is good!

But what hasn’t changed is the purpose behind the event. Taste of the Wasatch is a fundraiser designed to help fight hunger in Utah. Proceeds from ticket sales and silent auction donations go toward Utahns Against Hunger and 3 Squares Inc.

And finally, we offer you the first look at the full menu (minus a few). Plan accordingly friends, there are only four hours to consume your favorites and the best of the Bakers Dozen always disappears first. (Who says you can’t eat dessert first?) Now, eat to your heart’s content.
