The Taste of Connecticut continues, year after year. Since 1989, over 250,000 attendees have traveled to Mystic to sample nearly 435,000 portions of gourmet foods prepared by restaurants from all over Connecticut. The first Taste, in 1989, only lasted two days, Friday and Saturday. Even this inauspicious beginning drew 12,000 participants who consumed over 22,000 portions of food from 21 participating restaurants. In 1990, the event was extended to three days.
