Taste of the District is an annual tasting event that celebrates Medical District restaurants and strengthens connections among our institutional partners, the unique food and beverage options available in the District, and our community.

A special thanks to our sponsors - MLGW, Block by Block, Orion FCU and the Downtown Memphis Commission - for making this event possible.

Taste of the District is part of MMDC's Buy Local Program - a partnership with area hospitals and educational institutions to grow our local economy through intentional local purchasing with a focus on local, independent, minority, and women-owned businesses.
