The Great Taste

I had the pleasure of attending an event over this past weekend in Hartford, Connecticut called: The Great Taste. Of the many food and wine shows, this one was comparably smaller than most at 120 exhibits for food, wine, beer, travel and lifestyle - but offered a true sense of community among the greater Hartford area.

A major selling point for my attendance was The Great Taste's charitable affiliation. A portion of all proceeds benefited the Greater Hartford Jaycees - an organization known for empowering young people to make positive change. Pretty cool.

On the work side, I had the chance to meet some of the great Chef's in the Hartford community and get a sense of their passion for what they do and of course some of their favorite dishes. I could see Hartford as being a great stop along the dishKarma tour in the not so distant future. We're already watering at the mouth!
