The three finalists of the fish chowder competition will offer samples and compete for the grand prize. In the side tents watch celebrity and local chefs give demonstrations alongside host, Bobby Flay, learn about wines in private seminars, and cheer the finalists in live chef competitions.
New this year, the children’s area sponsored by Butterfield and Vallis! Bring your children to this year’s BGG because there will be a tent with activities just for them. Professional cook and author Katie Wilton and nutrition educator Julia Grimaldi have designed an interactive, fun, and educational program for you and your children. Kids will enjoy a coloring station, carving pumpkins, a culinary quiz game and food preparation & tasting of a recipe – Pizza Wontons - from Katie’s new cookbook – “You’re the Cook!” Katie and Julia will also make presentations at 1:00pm, 2:00pm, 3:00pm, and 4:00pm which will focus on culinary tips & techniques and nutritional ideas for healthy food preparation. Leave your children with Katie and Julia while you sample some wines and watch live demos at the adult tents. There is plenty to do to keep young chefs occupied and at the end of the day they get to take home their apron or pumpkin as a keepsake. To find out more about Katie visit:
