Food Network’s Simon Majumdar to be Featured Celebrity Judge at Taste of Huntington Beach 

Hot off the Fundraising Press!! #HBTaste #TasteHB  

Huntington Beach, CA, April 14, 2016 -- From The Next Iron Chef to Cutthroat Kitchen, Simon Majumdar is a familiar face on the Food Network, where he is a popular judge and food critic.

The author and TV personality takes his taste buds to Huntington Beach, when he comes to judge at the 2016 Taste of Huntington Beach. 

The annual Taste of Huntington Beach, a community gathering featuring food, drink, live music and fun will be held on April 24, 2016, from 12 - 4 pm at the Huntington Beach Sports Complex; 18100 Goldenwest Street (across the parking lot from the HB Central Library). 

The Taste of Huntington Beach is presented by The Friends of the Children's Library (FOTCL) and proceeds benefit the Children's Department of the Huntington Beach Public Library. “Huntington Beach has so much to offer in terms of restaurants.

Most people don't realize how BIG the HB restaurant scene is until they see all the participants in one place. 

This event "creates a fun and exciting buzz with amazing food!" shares Slapfish chef/owner and local Huntington Beach resident Andrew Gruel, who not only returns to the Taste tent but will also be serving up something special at the VIP tent. At the time of this release, there are 80 restaurants, wineries and breweries participating at the Taste. 

Live musical entertainment will be provided by local favorites Chris Farmer Duo (Chris was the former musical director of the legendary Beach Boys) and 80s cover band After Party. 

The event’s presenting sponsor is Beach Blvd. of Cars and is also supported by Chobani, Superior Valet, The Local News, The Local HB, Surf City Family, Big Top Rentals, Albertsons/Vons, Duke’s HB, Rainbow Environmental Service, US Foods, College Nannies and Tutors, PK Real Estate, HB Culture, Avalon Huntington Beach, UPS Store, Pepsi Beverage Co. and SkillCraft Auto.
