Taste Buds Kitchen opens Kelsey Creek location, debuts with crepe demonstration
The Kelsey Creek neighborhood just got a whole lot tastier this last week, as Taste Buds Kitchen opened their Bellevue location, welcoming guests with open arms and hot plates ready for cooking.
Franchise owners Marta Masferrer and her husband Connor ventured away from the corporate life and took a turn toward the culinary with this pivot, now hosting cooking classes for all ages, dietary restrictions, and cuisines.
Congrats to the crew for a successful opening, and for teaching us all how to make crepes worth writing about! Check out their class offerings here.

Chamber President & CEO Joe Fain also flagged several structural issues that need closer review, including treatment of pass-through entities, charitable deductions, a potential marriage penalty, and interactions with other state tax policies.
