Not just one of the best, but THE Best Food Event in the Finger Lakes. That’s what the Finger Lakes Cork & Fork festival can boast. And with good reason.

This annual event, taking place Sept. 20-21, 2013, is the premier field to feast event in the Finger Lakes region. The festival celebrates agriculture, viticulture and culinary best. Tickets are $25 or $50, which allows you access to wine pairings and delicious food.

You may sample locally grown produce and foods, taste dishes prepared by the best restaurants and chefs in the area. You can even learn a few recipes and how to pick the right wines for your meals at home.

Sounds pretty good to us! And best of all, you can buy just about everything you see. If you like it, buy it, and you can enjoy fine wine and food the very same night.

This two-day festival offers a variety of events, starting Friday night’s chef’s competition and an after-dinner dance.

Perfect for couples and less expensive than a typical night out on the town, the Finger Lakes Cork & Fork festival is perfect couples, singles and those who love wine and food. And who doesn’t love that pairing?
