Las Olas Wine and Food Festival

By Tracy A. Block

Hundreds of Las Olas winos and foodies flocked over to the Las Olas Wine and Food Festival on Thursday, May 1, for a night of good eats and great sips, all for a charitable cause. The fest, which took over Las Olas Boulevard, benefited the American Lung Association of Florida with more than 60 restaurants and 30 wine vendors in attendance. Not too shabby for a Thursday night! Guests were treated to a slew of bites from eateries like the new China Grill Fort Lauderdale, Mango’s, Big City Tavern, California Pizza Kitchen and Mancini’s. Sip-worthy wines included Groth, Jackson Wine Estates, Hess and Big Pecker. Sweet treats from We Take The Cake and Kilwin’s were truly a happy ending.
