AUGUST 21, 2015 THE BEST OF NORTH KITSAP PAGE 3

Readers reveal their favorites in North KitsapMost people know North Kitsap for its forests and shores, for Norwegian-themed downtown Poulsbo, and for culture-rich Little Boston and Suquamish. But, do you know where to get the Best Burger, Best Beer Selection, Best Dessert? According to our latest Best of North Kitsap survey, residents here love to boast about what makes living in North Kitsap so unique.

Over 1,400 readers responded to our annual online survey this year, submitting nominations in approximately 80 categories. Look within these pages and you’ll see the people and places that survey respondents say are standouts in various Services, Food, Shopping, Entertainment, Fitness & Sports, Public Servants, and Best Aspects of Living in North Kitsap. The nominees help make living here a special experience. They deserve a shout out, as do the readers that participated in our annual survey. Thank you all! The special section you are holding helps tell the story of North Kitsap’s communities: Poulsbo, Kingston, Eglon, Hansville, Indianola, Keyport, Little Boston, Port Gamble, Suquamish. North Kitsap is an exciting, thriving place where diversity reigns: Beaches, farmland, forests, sea views, seaside towns, wildlife. Entertainment, recreation, retail, services and tourism. If you’re looking for a contractor, a restaurant, a gift shop, a place to work out or, where to get the best burger, you’ll find the Best of North Kitsap a fun source.

The Best of North Kitsap is published by the North Kitsap Herald, which has been the Voice of North Kitsap since 1901. Call (360) 779-4464 for convenient home delivery. You can also stay up-to-date on North Kitsap news and events by visiting NorthKitsapHerald.com.
