Sherm’s BBQ and the Harvest Dance, Issaquah Food Bank Benefit
Issaquah Highland’s own Sherm’s BBQ Bistro and Catering was one of the restaurants that provided the food for the Harvest Dance, a benefit for the Issaquah Food Bank. Kim of Sherm’s put on quite a spread, Pork Spare Ribs in Paprika Sauce, Smoke Beef tidbits on a stick, Blue Cheese Potatoes, BBQ Chicken and Jambalya, Pulled Pork Canapes, Turkey & Cranberry Wraps. Hungry yet?!

Sherm's BBQ
Sherm’s is at 1927 15th Ave NE, across from Ashland Park. The restaurants who provided the food get a big hooray from me and I am sure all who attended the dance. Harvest Dance was a huge success at least for those who attended.
Other restaurants that participated were Amante’s Pizza and Pasta. Lombardi’s, Tiger Mountain Grill and Sweet Addition. The food had great variety (see below) and the turnout was superb. I don’t know how much the food bank benefited but by all appearances it should have been a success. I was busy eating and taking pictures but the beat got the best of me and soon Larry and I were dancing to the rhythm. Pickering Barn was jumpin, that night (not because of us)!
We even got a little of “These Boots are Made for Walkin’” later on in the evening. For a while almost, but not all, were concentrating on the food. But brave souls ventured out and soon the dance floor was full. It didn’t matter if you were young or old or if you could dance. everyone had fun.
There were so many seated at tables that there wasn’t that much space for dancing and you know how long the Pickering Barn is!

Later in the evening a auction began for many items that were also donated by individuals and businesses.
We couldn’t stay, if any of you did, comment on this article and let us know how it went.
