This weekend sees East Hampton, New York turned into the 2nd Hamptons Wine and Food Festival. The organisers are promising a treat following last years success with a weekend full of parties, wine and food tasting seminars, cooking demonstrations, live competitions and a spectacular Grand Tasting on both days. If you are going then there is a 'full menu of culinary entertainment, exploring emerging wine and food trends from around the world and the region's own backyard'. Some people going by the names of Sandra Lee and Dave Lieberman are to be there too.
Not that I am going or anything but the wine/spirit tasting sessions sound wonderful - these include a Sherry & Tapas session, a Single Malt Scotch Tasting with local food pairings and a chance to sample super-premium Partida Tequila. Local wines will be in abundance too of course.
