The Philly Water Taste Test

20070720tastetest.jpgHow good is Philly tap water? According to the Daily News, it's good enough to pass for tap water. An all-star (sorta) tasting panel was assembled: Howard Newukreg, director of the Office of Watersheds (and the guy responsibly for Philly's drinking water), Philadelphia Wine School founder Keith Wallace, Water Works Restaurant co-owner and water somellier Leonids Agorastos and soon-to-be-mayor Michael Nutter. The majority of tasters mistook Philly water for bottled water. However, Nutter got it right.
