Take a bite of this!

After converting even the skeptics in a crowd of 250 at last year’s Bite of Blaine event, organizers of this years event are expecting more people and more variety for them to sample.

“I heard over and over last year that people didn’t know there were so many restaurants in Blaine,” said Ed Magner of La Bonne Maison. The idea of the event is to get all the restaurants in Blaine and Birch Bay together and show their stuff.

So far more than a dozen restaurants are committed to have booths at the February 11 event at Resort Semiahmoo, offering everything from soup to deserts.

The addition this year of Birch Bay restaurants to the roster means classic eateries like Drydock and Edrics will join Blaine restaurants like Blackberry House, Portal Cafe and Paso Del Norte. New this year are Stafholt Good Samaritan Home and Cost Cutter.

Tickets for the event cost $20 and are available at Pacific Building Center and the Pizza Factory in Blaine or Bank Northwest in Birch Bay. The doors open at 6:30 p.m. for cocktails. The food will start rolling out at 7 p.m.

Check The Northern Light next week for a list of participating restaurants.
