Are you a Foodie? Here’s an event you won’t want to miss! Celebrate the Southernmost City’s world-famous culinary scene at the first annual Key West Food & Wine Festival, the last four days of January, Thursday through Sunday.
Just like Key West, there is “something for everyone”, from funky coconut bowling to fine wine tastings designed to curl the pinkie finger of the most discriminating connoisseur.
Want some tips on how to wrap a cake in fondant? Learn the difference between Old World and New World wines? Go on a bike tour that ends at the place where they make – and you taste – the best ice creams ever, using unique local ingredients? Enjoy an authentic Key West shrimp boil on the docks where they bring ‘em off the boats?
How about a visit to an open-air wine market? Or explore the Key West-Cuba connection by celebrating the birth of Cuba’s most renowned literary and political figure, Jose Marti, at a classic cigar dinner. And you must do the civilized version of the “Duval crawl”: “Duval Uncorked”, a mile-long stroll, sampling great food, wine and entertainment at some of Key West’s most unique restaurants, bars, galleries, and shops.
We hope we’ve whetted your appetite! Come join us for all the courses, cultural, cerebral, and gastronomical. And stay right in the middle of it all, at The Tropical Inn, 812 Duval … where there will be some really special breakfast treats, in honor of this event (included in your room rate, of course)!
