Savor & Sip event offers all things culinary in Mansfield area
The Richland Area Chamber and Economic Development is planning its 7th annual Savor & Sip Auction and Food Tasting.
And Emily Walker, local store marketer for Texas Roadhouse in Ontario, said Tuesday she is excited to return to the event.
"We are planning to bring fresh-made rolls, which come out of our oven every 5 minutes, and pulled pork and all our sauces which are made from scratch," Walker said.
She said she likes being a part of the event because it enables her to get to know different places and connect with other business owners.
"It's just another opportunity to build relationships and an opportunity for us to partner with new people this year," Walker said, noting Texas Roadhouse partners with many community groups.
The event will take place from 5-8 p.m. on Oct. 26 at the Mid-Ohio Conference Center in Mansfield. Businesses in the food industry such as restaurants, caterers and food trucks are invited to have a table at this event to provide tastings of their food in order to promote their business. There is no charge for businesses that are chamber members to provide tastings. A nonmember rate is also available.
The Savor & Sip event is a celebration of all things culinary in the area, from mouth-watering appetizers, entrees, desserts, pastries, and beverages from some of the area's finest restaurants, caterers, bakeries, delis, and beverage companies. There will also be entertainment and a silent auction happening throughout the evening, allowing attendees to bid on a large selection of items, according to a news release from the chamber.
