The Inaugural Viva Big Bend Food Festival

Posted on February 26, 2013 by Sahar

Dear Fellow Food Lovers –

On behalf of the inaugural Viva Big Bend Food Festival, I would like to cordially invite all of you for food, music, and beautiful scenery April 4 – 6 in Alpine, Marfa, Marathon, and Fort Davis, TX.

All of the information for the festival can be found on the festival website: http://www.vivabigbend.com

There’s more information being added every day.

And, yes. I will be teaching 2 classes during the festival. I’m excited and honored to have been chosen to help kick off what will no doubt be a successful, annual, and kick-ass food festival.

Besides the food and music, who couldn’t resist enjoying the scenery?

    One of my favorite places in the world! I didn’t know about this festival though, thanks for putting it on my radar. I would love to hear a wrap-up after it’s over, though I’m sure you have that planned already.

    I’m taking my kids down there in a couple of weeks (during the Spring Break madness) to introduce them to it. Can’t wait.
