$50 for One Ticket to the Grand Tasting, A Culinary Affair ($100 Value)

The Grand Tasting sends visitors on a tour of the world as they sample unlimited dishes, wine, beer, and spirits from six distinct regions of the world. When participants move from one region to the next, they find themselves in a room decorated according to the country whose wares are on offer. Live cooking demonstrations take place in Kitchen Alley on Saturday, November 10, 2012 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., and a farmers' market and retail shopping bazaar let attendees take home quality food and gear. Visitors learn about rum in the spirits region, and live music fills the air as Kendra Fulmer opens for the Urban Gypsy Band. Attendees can also tour the art gallery and sensory garden.
