Twenty-four local restaurants will offer samples of their fare during the Coast of Pacific Beach Restaurant Walk on Tuesday, June 8. Participants can stroll to any of the restaurants from 5 to 9 p.m. and try the prepared samples. “It’s an opportunity for one of two nights of the year where folks can sample a variety of different PB restaurants,” said Andy Hanshaw, executive director or Discover PB. Gloria’s Bar-B-Q and Hans Boardwok are two newer restaurants in Pacific Beach that will be participating. “We just want to go out and put some good food out into the community,” said Kern Carson, owner of Gloria’s Bar-B-Q. Gloria’s will have a large display of ribs, both beef and pork, for participants to try along with their secret sauce. “I would recommend the brisket to everyone,” Carson said. “We have a lot of favorites,” said Hanshaw. Some of the favorite restaurants include Filippi’s Pizza Grotto, Old City Grill and Bub’s Dive Bar. “The Bahia Belle will be running free cruises all night,” Hanshaw said. Participants can board the boat at the Catamaran just by showing their ticket. Past restaurant walks have attracted between 800 and 900 people. The event is a fundraiser for Discover PB, which reinvests into the business community through maintenance and cleaning and through special events, Hanshaw said. The $20 tickets are for sale at Filippi’s Pizza Grotto, Pangaea Outpost and Gringo’s Cantina, or at the Discover PB office at 1503 Garnet Ave. Tickets are also available online at www.pacificbeach.org and www.govavi.com. Tickets will be available in front of Crystal Pier near 710 Beach Club at the west end of Garnet Avenue the day of the event.
