Salt Lake Food & Wine Fest July 7-13

June 29, 2017 By Heather King Leave a Comment

The Salt Lake Area Restaurant Association (SLARA) presents the first-ever Salt Lake Food & Wine Fest July 7-13 around the city’s capital.

Showcasing culinary offerings via individual events and educational seminars, many participating restaurants will also offer special menu selections throughout the week-long celebration.

“Given the extent to which Salt Lake’s food and beverage scene has evolved and matured, SLARA believes this is the ideal time to launch an annual event that promotes and celebrates the fact that we have become a significant culinary capital of the Mountain West,” says Michele Corigliano, Executive Director of SLARA. “The Salt Lake Food & Wine Fest will feature a range of delectable events designed to showcase our area’s top talent while appealing to both culinary novices and connoisseurs.”
