Fairfield County’s Very Own Food and Wine Festival

Greenwich Food and Wine Festival 2012 benefits Hole In The Wall Gang Camp

Listen-Up Everybody! 

Are you a die-hard foodie?  Do you love to eat great food?  Are you addicted to cooking shows on TV?  Are you a bold adventurer in your own kitchen? 

If you have answered “yes” to one or more of the above questions, then you need to get your you-know-what to this year’s Greenwich Food & Wine Festival from Oct 4-6th at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park in Greenwich.

Presented by Serendipity Magazine, this is not just a gathering place of local chefs and restaurants … in fact this is a congregation of local and national culinary masters. 

My favorite part about this festival is that it is a huge YET small-enough event to allow you to rub elbows with the best of the best.

With plenty of opportunities to see culinary masters demonstrating their craft on stage, to celebrity chef book signings, to mingling with the same in a wonderful culinary village which brings you a taste of the best of Fairfield County in food and wine.

I speak from personal experience.  Last year, was the first time Serendipity Magazine put together this amazing foodie event.  I was so excited and immensely curious.  I looked it up on their website and saw that they were looking for volunteers (btw: volunteers get a free pass to the festival). 

Twist my arm, I thought …. and I decided to volunteer.  How fun it was! It gave me a close up look at all the action.  I can tell you that, for its first year, I was blown away by how well organized and superbly orchestrated this event was.   There were no flaws … just tons of great food, lip-smacking BBQ, excellent wine, amazing live music, and countless happy faces all around.

I just called Staples. This is really disturbing to me. If I don't get a satisfactory answer, IRead More will let people know and I will also decide whether to continue shopping there. I do not like to give my money to unethical businesses.

This has convinced my growing conviction that Patch has moved completely away from any pretense ofRead More being a news source and is simply an electronic bulletin board. By abandoning their prior procedure of approving posts before they go up, they are letting anything go on and then taking them down if they're reported. By then, it's too late: the poster has gotten their message across during the time it's in the lineup. I only check in with Patch occasionally now and so many people in town won't read it at all anymore. I think we need to be honest with ourselves about what kind of a public forum this venue is. This doesn't reflect well on Staples if they are using subterfuge and violating Terms of Use on Patch either.

New Canaan hockey players are better off playing at Sono, Ridgefield or Stamford Youth Hockey.
