Sweet Taste of Upland |
|
‘A TASTE OF UPLAND’ CELEBRATES CENTURY OF GRACIOUS LIVING AND FINE DINING OPPORTUNITIES UPLAND, CA – Saturday, has been selected as the date for A Taste of Upland, the third and most elegant offering in a series of events celebrating historic downtown Upland’s diversity and uniqueness. Running from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Sweet Taste of Upland will feature many different Upland bistros displaying the finest in the region’s wine and cuisine at the heart of the historic downtown Upland, said Main Street Upland Executive Director Steve Eastis, whose organization sponsors the annual event. Cost for the black – tie optional event will be $25 per person with reservations and $30 per person at the event, he added. Along with the Upland Lemon Festival and regular weekly Market Night events, A Taste of Upland highlights the numerous and singular shopping and dining opportunities featured in the historic downtown district, said Eastis. A Taste of Upland will feature four different restaurants which allow attendees to explore the historic downtown’s wide variety of cuisine and wine selection that reflect the heritage of what was once the world’s leading vineyard and agricultural community. “Economics and modern community development practices dictate that most of today’s restaurants tend to be large franchises built as part of major retail developments,” said Eastis. “Historic downtown communities provide the few remaining places where diners can experience the variety of distinctive fine dining opportunities we offer here. That is why designated regions like historic downtown Upland are also the few remaining areas where truly unique dining opportunities can flourish.” “As the historic crossroads of Southern California, Upland has for over a century boasted a cultural diversity far more distinctive than any other California city. We want everyone in the region to experience that uniqueness in an elegant, one of a kind event. The ‘City of Gracious Living’ began as the transportation hub of a series of historic roads from California to the east and Mexico. “In fact, the center of Downtown Upland marks the point where the historic Old Spanish Trail from the southwest to the coast merged with the El Camino Real (the King’s Road) connecting the Spanish missions. “The first settlers noted that because of the perfect combination of warm sun, wide open spaces and numerous fresh water sources, farmers in the region were able to mimic the crops grown in the great food and vineyard growing regions of the world,” Eastis said.“With the expansion of the region’s vineyards in the 19th century, our region profited again from an influx of Italian, French, Russian, Chinese, Japanese and native and southwestern American influences as well. “Virtually every major culture celebrated for its food or wine has been represented here in the Inland Valley,” said Eastis. “A Taste of Upland represents that history with a wide selection of the finest cuisine in the region.” Eastis noted the event “also allows us to introduce these fine and casual dining opportunities along with old time neighborhood taverns and the most unique shops and businesses in the region.” The event will begin near the gazebo at Ninth Avenue and 2nd ave in historic downtown Upland just east of Euclid Avenue.

Come join the fun at the All American Car & Truck Show on Saturday, September 11th. Bring the family and friends and make a day viewing hundreds of the finest cars & trucks around. There will be food, beer & wine garden, live band, contests, raffles, auctions and more. The car show is being put on by the Pomona Valley Corvette Association (www.pvca.org) to raise money for The Painted Turtle, an innovative camp and family care center for children with life-threatening illnesses. (www.thepaintedturtle.org) This is a great opportunity to help out a great organization and have fun at the same time. To make things even better, Main Street Upland is hosting a chili cook-off in the beer & wine garden to help raise funds. The entry fee is $30.00 and one gallon of chili for the Peoples Choice. For the official rules and application, go to the forms section of this site. This is Main Street’s first ICS sanctioned cook-off. ICS (International Chili Society) is a national organization that sets up rules and guidelines for chili cook-offs. To be in the sanctioned judging, a $42.00 annual membership to ICS is required. We would love to have you join us in competition for cash and trophy awards and to help out The Painted Turtle. If Cooking’s not your thing, then come on down for the samples. We look forward to seeing you. For more information Call 909-949-4499 |
