Mussel Fest boasts chowder galore Help uncover history at RECORD STAFF
Take a trip this weekend and satisfy those chowderloving taste buds. Penn Cove Mussel Festival starts Friday. The three-day event stays true to its roots with nearly every Coupeville restaurant
offering chowder samplings. This year event planners increased the number of chowder tasting tickets. An estimated 32,000 ounces of chowder will be given out by 16 of the 17 Coupeville restaurants. All the chowder tasters get to vote on the best chowder and at the end of the weekend a winner gets a plaque and picture. Tastings will run Saturday and Sunday. There will be tours of Penn Cove Mussels leaving every
hour from Coupeville Wharf, a mussel-eating contest, children’s activities, live music, a beer garden and more. Free shuttles will be offered to town. Some of the events and activities cost money to attend. Tickets will be sold at the Coupeville Rec Hall on Alexander Street. For a full schedule of events see the Whidbey Flavor special section inside this edition.
