Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival is Almost Here!

The best wine & food show in the country is right around the corner, the Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival. I have attended this fest four years in a row now, and between the food celebrities, parties, demos, events, and weather, you don't need to convince me any further to leave Chicago in the middle of the winter for this foodie paradise event!

This will be the second year I am covering the event for Flavor City, last years video can be seen here, and is loaded with food network celebs, and all access footage. http://youtu.be/mzIsp165SI8

There are many wine & food shows across the country now, but here are the reasons why you NEED to be at #SoBeWFF.

The Events/Parties: These events are not just about the tasty food, you can also meet a wide variety of A-list food celebs, be dazzled by live music and an atmosphere that screams fun, and party with some of the most beautiful people you can imagine in South beach. The tickets to these events are a little pricey, but they are well worth it for the amount of bang you get for your buck.

The Food: Imagine eating gourmet bites from many of the worlds top chefs, drinking fine champagne and cocktails, and experiencing the flavors of the world in one location...well all of that is possible at many of the #SoBeWFF events. From the Burger Bash to The Q,  you can indulge in as much top tier food your belly desires.

South Beach: The weather is perfect, the people are hot, and with all the #SoBeWFF activities going on, there is no other place on earth I would rather be Feb. 20-23rd.

I will be blogging about #SoBeWFF in the coming weeks, and let you know which events are looking hot this year. Here are some photos from last year.
