Will food be available if there is no sit-down dinner? The Taste of the Garden is an event like no other in Washington, DC! While this event does not include a sit-down dinner, instead, we engage our guests with interactive chef demonstrations with tastings and other engaging activities. There will still be plenty of delicious food options available at the event, including passed hors d’oeuvres, live food stations, and delectable dessert offerings.

PARKING AND TRANSPORTATION

Will there be parking? On-street parking is limited and parking regulations are strictly enforced, especially during evening rush hours. There are several commercial parking garages nearby one being located in the Universal South Building at 2005 Florida Ave. This garage is open from 5:30am to 10pm Monday through Thursday (until midnight during summer).
