One of our most favorite things in the world is food. Taking photos of food would probably rank as #2 or #3. That’s why Taste Of North Texas is totally our jam. This is the 27th year that ~35 restaurants from all over the “little d” metro will fill the Super Pit at UNT and offer up samples of what they’ve got to benefit the Denton Kiwanis Club. This event is a Denton staple, sort of like Frenchy (who happens to be their most orange member). We’re excited to check out newcomers Upper Park out of Aubrey, soon to be opening another location on the square & you will probably find us hanging out with John Williams at the East Side / OSDH table for obvious reasons. Tickets prices are $15 for adults (Ages 18 and older), $10 for ages 7 to 17. Children ages 6 and under get in free. You can email them at denton.kiwanis@verizon.net if you’ve got questions and go check out dentonkiwanisclub.org and check out all the awesome ways they’ve been a huge part of Denton.

WHAT THE HECK IS TASTE OF NORTH TEXAS?
We sat down with Aaron Newquist of First State Bank and chatted about Taste of North Texas, the amazingly gluttonous fundraising event that he helps run for Denton Kiwanis Club. We’ve heard about this one for years (26 to be exact) but we haven't really ever known what it was or why it even happened. Turns out, this is another little slice of Denton that you can literally eat your way through. Check out how you can sample food from the likes of Oak St. Draft House, Mellow Mushroom, Beth Marie's Kolache Haven, La Milpa, Nothing Bundt Cakes and lots more for one low price in our interview with Newquist.
