NoHo Junction Hosts Free Private Tasting For Registered Guests

TAMPA, FL — What magic happens when the founders of four different types of restaurants join forces? At NoHo Junction, it’s a private tasting. With free registration, guests can sample a variety of menu items.

The inaugural private tasting at NoHo Junction is scheduled for Oct. 5 – 15, from 3 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at 1500 W. Cass St. in Tampa. The event, held Monday through Thursday, features participating urban food halls vendors who graciously prepare delicious samples for registered attendees.

Featured food vendors are Royal Palace Thai Asian Express, Pizza Lab, All American Deli, and Ravens Craveins Ice Cream and Donut Shop.

Following pandemic restrictions, guests are limited to up to 8 per 30-minute appointments. Social distance seating and masks are mandatory for entry for the safety of guests and staff. Registration, though free, is required.

“We’re excited for customers to discover all the great food choices at NoHo Junction. We have something to satisfy everyone’s tastes,” said Tapanee Damrongwatanasuk, the co-innovator behind NoHo Junction and owner of Royal Palace Thai in SoHo. “We hope our new guests will enjoy our urban food hall and discover the story behind NoHo Junction.”

With a railroad theme honoring its roots in Tampa, NoHo Junction’s 4000-square-foot interior is a mix of vintage railroad decor and industrial with quartz countertops, walls of ledger stone brick and stained wood with large digital display signage, menu boards with walk-up windows, and a self-serve self-order kiosk. A 103-inch screen TV shows free family-friendly movies each Friday night and NFL football each Sunday.

With a meeting area in a lounge setting and the huge screen projector, Tapanee cites that NoHo Junction is the perfect venue for a networking meeting, club, fundraiser, wedding reception, bar/bat mitzvah, birthday party, or any safe socially-distanced event.

Long before the railroads came to Tampa, the junction, a historic Indian mound, was a favorite meeting place where people came together to share cultures, socialize, exchange goods, and eat. As time passed and the railroad arrived, the junction became synonymous as a place where food enthusiasts tested out new recipes.

Today, NoHo Junction sits in that intersection of past and present, a modern eatery with old-school railroad charm. NoHo Junction is proud to celebrate its heritage as a meeting place where everyone is welcome, carrying on the Tampa tradition of multiple cultures coming together to share a great meal.

“No matter what you’re craving, Noho Junction is synonymous with fresh, delicious, and innovative. We can’t wait for you to visit and sample our menu!”
