With a whole new slate of food trucks, local restaurants, and culinary vendors lining up to sell and sample their goods through tastings and interactive workshops, this San Francisco party promises to bring something new to the table every week.

This week's food vendors includes Alicia's Tamales Los Mayas (http://aliciatamaleslosmayas.com/) who will be selling her traditional Mexican tamales, Garden Creamery (http://www.gardencreamery.com/) who is sampling their gourmet line of vegan sorbets, Arizmendi Bakery (http://www.arizmendibakery.org/), La Cumbre and several personal chefs from the Bay Area showcasing their talents through small bites and demonstrations. 

Taste party goers will enjoy their foodie adventure in one of the largest outdoor patio spaces in the city starting at 6:30. World renowned dance instructors from SalsaCrazy and DanceSF will show party patrons how to salsa dance and bachata dance starting at 7:30, with live music starting at 10:00pm every Friday.

Food and games will start winding down between 9:00, but the dance party will go until 2:00am.

Taste also plans to invite local street game designers to organize in-club games throughout the season.'We want to create a party for all the senses,' says Corey Raynor, event organizer, 'so we're preparing the best salsa lessons and Latin dance lessons, bands, and DJs to make an amazing Latin dance night for veterans and newbies. But the cocktails and food engage San Francisco's favorite sense - and our namesake  - Taste.'

There will be no cover charge for the outdoor patio, but vendor and activity prices will vary per week, with at least one free activity scheduled each Friday. Entrance to the dance lessons and Salsa party will be $15 at the door, but pre-sale and package discounts are available online.

Special performance from Salsa orchestra N'Rumba starts at 10:00pm.
