Food for Thought

You can't talk about this Del Mar fair without talking about the food. From the incredible to the wacky, this fair has it all. According to sdfair.com, some of the newest culinary additional are the: triple decker Krispy Kreme burger (that's 3 meat patties book ended by two krispy kreme donuts), smoked bacon-wrapped churros (pretty self explanatory), and banana fosters pie (waffle crust stacked with ice cream, covered with bananas, caramel and whipped cream - YUM!).

The Best of the Best:

It's San Diego, the new beer capitol of the US and the neighbor of SoCal's wine region. So, of course, it's only right that the fair include a beer and wine tasting and exhibit. The exhibit will showcase the winners of theSan Diego International Beer Competition, Homebrew Competition, Toast of the Coast Wine Competition, and Homemade Wine Competition. It's 5 o'clock somewhere applies to beer and wine too, right?
