Food, wine and community come together at the 17th annual Grand Tasting, a premier culinary event at the Palm Beach County Convention Center on Dec. 15 from 2 to 6 p.m.
The Grand Tasting features a curated selection of dishes from over 60 of South Florida’s most acclaimed chefs and restaurants. Attendees can savor a diverse array of culinary delights, from gourmet creations to indulgent sweets. Accompanying the cuisine are more than 100 wines rated 90 or higher by Wine Spectator, alongside craft spirits and specialty cocktails.
A highlight is the Grand Chef Throwdown, presented by Creekstone Farms. Hosted by Mo & Sally and Jay Cashmere, this dynamic competition showcases three local chefs vying for a $10,000 prize to benefit a local charity. The panel of celebrity guest judges includes acclaimed chefs Maneet Chauhan, Tiffani Faison and Robert Irvine.
The Grand Tasting celebrates South Florida’s thriving culinary scene and provides a platform to support the community. Visit the website for tickets, which are $229, and more details.
