BITS & SIPS DURING FIRST FRIDAYS: CULINARY TOUR

Several of the participants in the First Fridays:
Culinary Tour are Gloria Keller-Brinley, KitchenAid Experience;
CJ Jasenski, Third Street Market; Rob Garrett, The Coffee Pot;
Jeff Besecker, Ozro & Rays and sponsor of the event.
Downtown Greenville is experiencing a re-birth of entrepreneurs embracing the community’s distinct assets and flavors. The rise is due in part by the local food movement, where local collaborations are being made everyday. To highlight these relationships, Ozro & Rays and Main Street Greenville have organized a Culinary Tour as the theme for ‘First Fridays’ on March 2 from 6:00-9:00 pm.

As a special feature of ‘First Fridays’, the Culinary Tour will highlight 10+ businesses growing roots in the downtown community. Guests will eat and sip their way through the dynamic district that is on the rise with a new generation of entrepreneurs. The tour will consist of many small groups guided by energetic foodies and downtown connoisseurs. Each group will visit participating downtown establishments highlighting amazing fare one would not know existed in Darke County.

The Culinary Tour is a ticketed event with only 100 tickets available.

The two hour guided tour will start promptly at 6:00 pm leaving plenty of time to take in other fine establishments in the historic business district including AMS Uniform, Artifacts, Ink., The A&B Coffee & Cake Co., The Bistro Off Broadway, The Bootery, Brenda’s Beanery, The Coffee Pot, D’Alessios, Danny’s Place, The Ivy League, KitchenAid Experience, The Little Italian CafĂ©, Merle Norman, Third Street Market, Readmore’s Hallmark, Romer’s Catering, and Youniques.

Tickets are $10 and available at The Coffee Pot, Readmore's Hallmark, Third Street Market, The A&B Coffee & Cake Co. or on-line at www.DowntownGreenville.org. Tour details including the starting location are available on the ticket.

Each first Friday from February to December, downtown businesses extend their hours to embrace the evening atmosphere much like a dense urban center–making downtown the place to be on ‘First Fridays’!

‘First Fridays’ is presented by Main Street Greenville, a non-profit organization committed to stimulating and supporting revitalization efforts, historic preservation and economic growth in Historic Downtown Greenville. To learn more, visit www.DowntownGreenville.org or call 937-548-4998.
