You need to get yourself to Portland’s epic four day food and wine festival. Period.
When: October 24-27, 2012
Where: Ocean Gateway Pier
Get to it! Purchase your tickets to one or all of the events celebration of everything awesome in the Portland food and drink scene. Running from Wednesday, October 24 through Saturday, October 27, it’s a great way to cram in some supreme eats. The “Grand Tasting on the Harbor” is a $75.00 per person kick-off to the four day schedule of events, which includes the “Maine Lobster Chef of the Year Competition” and Saturday’s “Savory Samplings at the Marketplace,” a great way to sample over 160 different gourmet foods, wines, and spirits.
I’m gettin’ my grub on at the opening gala tonight and to try to snag some intel on what’s in store for the rest of the festival, so check back if you want the down low.

She's the Expert Chef for Maine-based Guiding Stars® and she consults with the state's public schools on how to serve healthy whole foods that kids will actually eat. And when Erin’s not researching, preparing, serving, photographing, teaching, or writing about food, you’ll probably find her in a restaurant eating a meal cooked by someone else. So she just might be the girl you need to know if you're looking for recommendations, advice, or insight into Maine's food scene. She's also very knowledgeable about firearms, in case you were wondering if she's a real Mainer.The Best Weekend events
