New England Food Festival
The 2007 America's Home Town Thanksgiving Food
Festival on the Plymouth Waterfront was once again a
great success! The pavilion opened full of
hospitality at approximately 11:00 AM with a
continuous line of people waiting to get in and
taste the creations from Cabby Shack,14 Union
Dockside Bar & Grille, British Beer Company,
Jubilee, The Blue Eyed Crab Grille & Raw Bar, Stoneforge, Panera Breads, Shops @ 5, Hills Home
Market and Cabot Cheese. Our volunteers were there
to greet over 2000 people who enjoyed chowders,
soups, desserts, steaks and good cheer.

NOTE!
The 2008 Food Festival will be November 22 |
All the
patrons had the opportunity to cast their votes for
their favorite tastes. Everyone enjoyed the
entertainment, from the Pirates who sang sea
chanteys and enthralled the crowds, to the chefs and
our judges Billy Costa, of TV Diner and Channel 7
News Anchors, Randy Price and Frances Rivera. This
event has grown to be a key factor and expected part
of the annual America's Home Town Thanksgiving
Celebration.
