Great week for food lovers along the Strand

Super Supper

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and soup afficiandos, and girls too, if you like supper, or bad puns, then put your big boy pants on and get down to the 20th annual “Souper Supper,” November 8 from 12-3 p.m. at the Market Common.

They’ve brought you tomato, chicken broth and vegetable, now The Myrtle Beach Chapter of American Culinary Federation will get Souper at Valor Park. The Souper is a popular culinary competition and tasting event that features over 50 Grand Strand restaurants and chefs. All competitors will serve tasty samples of their favorite soup along with bread, beverages and desserts provided by allied vendors and partners. Bring a bib.

32nd Annual Taste of the Town

If you liked the 31 previous Tastes of the Town, then go ahead and set that bar nice and high for the…wait for it…32nd Annual Taste of the Town!!!

If your taste buds have plans November 5 from 4-10 p.m., CANCEL THEM because they need to be down at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center cheating on all the healthy food they promised themselves to this past January.

The Taste has been the Grand Strand’s largest culinary/social event of the year and Myrtle Beach’s original food festival, and continues to reign supreme uncontested.

The event will include over 50 area restaurants serving up freshly prepared appetizers, entrees, and desserts, and cholesterol. Each booth will offer delectable “Tapas-style” items from their menus for $1-$4 each. Post meal regret not included.

Food tickets will be sold inside the Convention Center. Live entertainment for all ages, Silent Auction and more. All proceeds from this event will benefit St. Andrew Catholic School.

Boardwalk Crawl

The Boardwalk Crawl is heading down to the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk November 5 from 6-10 p.m. Sample the best foods at over 10 restaurants! Tickets are $1 each, and samples are provided for one to four tickets. “One Bad Apple,” (the band, not the fruit) will perform a concert following the crawl, and door and raffle prizes will be given away.
