Rev. Clarence Brown, chair of the Taste of Annandale Steering Committee, Mason Supervisor Penny Gross, and Maj. Gun Lee of the Fairfax County Police Department gave a preview about “the Taste,” which will showcase local restaurants and businesses, strengthen community engagement, and support local youths. The event will include a 5K Fun Run, live entertainment, a chili cook-off, and children’s corner. Proceeds will benefit the Annandale Youth Fund.
The Honey Pig, one of 21 restaurants participating in the
Taste of Annandale, specializes in meat grilled on your table and will have two booths at the event. Annandale had
the first Honey Pig, and the owner, June Kuark, has since opened restaurants in
Centreville, Ellicott City and Germantown, Md., and Taiwan. There’s also a
smaller Honey Pig [a piglet?] with karaoke on Markham Street in Annandale.
With the Taste of Annandale just two weeks away, the organizers
are in a last-minute rush to get the logistics worked out, sign up additional
sponsors and performers, put up yard signs and posters, and reach out to the public.
