From Irish food to Spanish cuisine, attendees of the 7th annual Taste of St. Armands had their fair share of dishes to choose from on Saturday.
More than 19 restaurants, wineries and microbreweries participated in the event, which brought plenty of visitors to St. Armands Circle. Options abounded for everyone, from buffalo chicken dip and flour tortilla chips to orange-flavored crepes. A DJ spun music in the background while guests sampled dishes and drinks from each restaurant.
Proceeds from the event, the 50/50 raffle and silent auction benefited Take Stock in Children, which offers college scholarships to low-income students.
