When you love food like we do, going to an event that revolves around food, wine, beer, and spirits is match found in heaven. We had the pleasure of attending last year’s Taste of Beverly Hills that was hosted by Food and Wine Magazine and it was truly one of those event that was not to be missed This year, Food and Wine Magazine teamed up with the Los Angeles Times, who also hosted a food event in LA last year, to put together a truly spectacular event called The Taste. It spans 4 days in 3 different locations and features 9 different events to attend. You’ll be able to see food personalities such as Susan Feniger, Duff Goldman, and Giada De Laurentiis along with unlimited food and drinks from some of Los Angeles’ most exciting restaurants such as Scarpetta, Border Grill and CHAYA. We’re going to try to make it to as many events as we can handle going to, but it looks as though we’ll have to strategize and choose which ones we really want to attend.

For Fashion I would say Nigella Lawson. Beautiful woman.
I liked you on FB.
I’m not a fan of Padma Lakshmi but I reluctantly admit she’s the most fashionable, lol.
I just “liked” you on facebook (which is connected to a different email address).
I think Gail King is a great fashion foodie.
i’m so excited!! i get to see kitchenrunway at the taste!!!! 🙂
Amy: Looking forward to seeing you at The Taste!!!
