The Massapequa Chamber of Commerce held its second annual Taste of Massapequa event on Thursday, April 24.
The event was hosted by Wren Kitchen at 5500 Sunrise Highway, with a list of 19 restaurants providing samples of their menus to the community.
Chamber President Robin Hepworth said there was a line of people waiting for the tasting to begin at 6 p.m. on Thursday night. She said the evening was a way for chamber members and restaurants to promote their business while community members were able to connect.
“It was a great event, and it’s nice to see the community come together,” she said. “I don’t think anyone had anything but positive things to say.”
It cost $30 for each person to participate in the event. There was a live DJ and a raffle, with part of the money going toward the chamber’s scholarship.
Janice Talento and Linda Rowse were co-chairs for the event, while Sands was the major sponsor.
The chamber’s next event will be on June 1 when it hosts its annual street fair.
