Key West Food and Wine Fest to Star Sunshine,
Savory Flavors and Spirited Fun
KEY WEST, Florida Keys
-- Food and wine enthusiasts can savor sunshine, standout dishes and
stellar vintages during the second annual Key West Food and Wine
Festival, set for Thursday through Sunday, Jan. 27-30.
Scheduled events showcase local chefs' culinary flair, indigenous
Florida Keys ingredients, premium wines from around the world and
offbeat "foodie" fun like bowling with coconuts.
The enticing "first course" is a barefoot evening beach party Thursday,
Jan. 27, featuring island cuisine, wine and music beside the Atlantic
Ocean at the Southernmost Beach Café.
"Entree" highlights include a grand wine tasting at former president
Harry Truman's restored Little White House, now Florida's only
presidential museum, pairing fine wines with entertainment by Key West
Symphony musicians.
Festival attendees can find a mile of temptations at Duval Uncorked, a
stroll down Key West's renowned Duval Street from the Gulf of Mexico to
the Atlantic, with appetizing forays into restaurants, bars, galleries
and boutiques.
Shrimp fanciers can feast at the Seafood Shakedown, a culinary
competition spotlighting the Florida Keys' prized pink shrimp and other
seafood. After attendees taste and judge contestants' dishes, the winner
earns the title of Shrimp King or Queen.
The festival of flavors also features a wacky afternoon of coconut
bowling and sampling coconut treats at Blue Heaven Restaurant in
historic Bahama Village, a traditional Key West shrimp boil at the funky
Hogfish Bar & Grill beside the shrimp docks and a "bubbles and madness"
champagne brunch at Azur Restaurant.
Additional festival menu items include an outdoor wine market,
informative food and wine seminars, the Master Chef's Classic and
neighborhood wine strolls.
Exclusive VIP passes are available covering admission to multiple
festival events, or attendees can purchase tickets for individual
events.
