THURSDAY LOWDOWN: Feed Your Face Around Old Town Tonight

Photo: Sabina Gallier

Your Humboldt Thursday features the return of A Taste of Main Street. If you’re unacquainted with the system: For your $25 price of admission, you get a small booklet containing tickets redeemable at over 20 downtown Eureka establishments, each with menu of minor edibles prepared specifically for this evening. You have three hours to hurry from grub to grub stuffing your face with as much finger-ish food as you can stomach. From experience, completing your ticket booklet is not easy. More details on aToMS and more in your Lowdown below.
