Dishcrawl Makes Its Peterborough Debut June 4th

PTBOCanada file photoDishcrawl, which strives to bring people and communities together over food and has already held events in Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Vancouver in Canada, is now entering the Peterborough food scene in June.

Dishcrawl takes food lovers on a gourmet tour to four distinctive restaurants in one night. It's similar to the concept of a pub crawl—but more delicious.
 
"It’s a great way to engage in our community, celebrate local eats and venture outside the culinary box," says Dishcrawl Peterborough Ambassador Hillary Flood in a release.
 
Dishcrawl makes its debut in Peterborough on June 4th, with the mission to give folks a reason to get out of the house and experience local culinary talent. Reservations are $60 per person

Participating restaurants are kept secret until two days before the event, at which time the first location is revealed to ticket holders.
 
To purchase tickets or for more information about Peterborough’s upcoming Dishcrawls, visit dishcrawl.com, follow @Dishcrawlpeterb on Twitter or email hillaryf@dishcrawl.com.
