2013 Las Vegas Epicurean Affair

This upper scale foodie event was occurring at the same time I was visiting Vegas, so I decided to give it a try. Boy was I pleasantly surprised! This fabulous event more than exceeded my expectations and was well worth the $ 105 ticket price! I will definitely be back in 2014!
From the moment I walked in I was overwhelmed with food and drink from all directions! There were over fifty vendors of extremely high quality food (some from celebrity chefs) ranging from a pork belly amuse bouche to delicate sushi to delectable crab cakes. In addition to a champagne bar, there were several stations featuring mixed drinks, wine, and craft beer. The lines were never more than a few people deep, which was fantastic!
The event took place around the numerous pools at The Palazzo hotel, and the decorations looked wonderful. I also appreciated the Mardis Gras style characters that mingled with the attendees. Everyone who was there looked like they had as great a time as I did, and I met several friendly people as well.
