Lots of exciting food and beverage related events scheduled for Tucson in the next few weeks. The weather is cooling down and it's the perfect time of year to enjoy great food in the great outdoors. Where to begin....
- Check out the Tucson Culinary Festival next week! It's four days of exciting food and "beverage" tastings brought to you by the Tucson Originals, a group of locally owned restaurants that provide food that's distinctive to the Tucson area. It all starts with the "Margarita Challenge" (I hope El Charro wins!) on Thursday night at Cuvee World Bistro . Then the event moves to Loews Ventana Canyon where there's two days of tasting great wines and foods from some of Tucson's greatest chefs. Sunday finishes up with a BBQ Brunch and great Blues music. I checked out several of these events last year and I had a great time.
- Oktoberfest in Tucson? Yes it does exist, and boy do we like to celebrate it! Get your lederhosen on and head out the Tucson Oktoberfest Festival, which starts today at Hi-Corbett Field and continues through Sunday. Enjoy authentic German food and music while checking out the many arts and crafts booths. If you're like me, it's hard to celebrate Oktoberfest when it 85 degrees outside. That's why I trek up to Mount Lemmon for their Oktoberfest celebration! Cruise up the Mt. Lemmon highway any weekend through October 9th and feast on bratwurst and German potato salad while enjoying German music and dancers dressed in authentic German wear. You'll feel like you're in Bavaria!
