Winning TASTE

Gerrity's Supermarket has been participating in Rotary of the Abingtons Taste of the Abingtons since the first year, according to owner Joe Fasula.

"What's wonderful about this event is that it's a win for everyone involved," Fasula said of the event scheduled for Sept. 23 at Nichols Village Hotel and Spa.

"The charitable organization gets to raise money, the guests get to try great food, and the businesses can sample food to people who may never think of going there.

"Some people don't realize the capabilities we have to cater events and make dinners. We have a chef at each grocery store."

This year's featured food item from Gerrity's will be chicken bruschetta, Fasula's favorite dish.

"My wife and I often serve it at our house for parties," he said.

Fasula also owns Fire and Ice Restaurant, Swoyersville, with his partner, executive chef Gary Edwards. That restaurant will also provide a signature dish for the event.
