Even before they make the formal announcement later this morning, we have details on the official revival of the Taste of Bloomington, the summer celebration of this city's bustling local restaurant scene that happened for 35 years before the pandemic said we couldn't have nice things.
Anyway, the Taste is back -- for at least one year, anyway -- courtesy of the Chocolate Moose. It's moving from its longtime home in the parking lot at City Hall to all five blocks of East Kirkwood Avenue, and it's moving from June to August. And: for the first time, admission will be free.
How do we know all this? Jordan Davis, who last appeared on this show a year ago to talk about his very popular No Dishes podcast, happens to be the director of operations for the Moose, and he's leading the charge to reestablish Taste by reinventing it. And the plans are intriguing to say the least.
(The previously scheduled interview with Devta Kidd and Stephen Hale about the coming Trashion Refashion Runway Show will air Wednesday.)
