The Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival, taking place February 21-24, 2013, will celebrate 12 years of existence and its recognition as America's most prestigious gourmet gathering for foodies and top chefs alike. It will also continue fulfilling its mission of raising money – approximately $17 million to date – for the Florida International University (FIU) Chaplin School of Hospitality and Tourism Management and the Southern Wine & Spirits Beverage Management Center. If you love food, wine and spirits like I do, this is your once a year opportunity to have a great time on the sand and say hello to your favorite famous top chefs – they all flock to our billion dollar sandbar for this event!
