This year's event presented an unbelievable array of sample plates from 58 of Richmond's best local food spots. By the end of the day, event attendance topped 18,000 and no one went home hungry. From Acacia to Zuppa's, our chefs showed us what they are made of - great talent, a penchant for serving you and a wonderful desire to connect with the community. The 2010 line-up will be equally as impressive and planning has already begun to expand on entertainment and make the day even more filling - and exciting - than ever before! Check back early next year for updates! Until then, Broad Appétit!
