Tickets are already going fast for the
2008 Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Fest, Feb. 21-24, 2008 in Miami.
In fact, the Giada De Laurentiis hosted "BubbleQ," Rachael Ray's "Burger Bash" and Ingrid Hoffmann's "Interactive Lunch" are all already SOLD OUT!
You'll notice that both
Mario Batali and
Al Roker do NOT have Food Network logos stamped onto their pictures.
I'm not that shocked to find out "Roker on the Road" may have taken it's last jaunt and is not being renewed, but with all the hubub from FN re: Mario's employment status I just figured the logo would be on for the time being-- at least while his (final) episodes of
Iron Chef air.
I N T E R E S T I N G!
Rachael, Giada and Ingrid will surely be doing some other events during the fest, so don't let these sold-out event discourage you.
Seriously-- it is one the best events I've ever been to. Amazing food, great wine, Food Network celebrities AND the beach in February!
(I sound like a commercial, I know. I'm not getting paid at all by them, but I'll let you know if I ever do. You ain't even HEARD commercial, yet! JK)
