USA Today Wine and Food Experience is a food and adult beverage festival with music and live demonstrations. This year it happens on 900 E Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas Saturday October 12TH.

These were the latest list of expected food venders-

Others such as The Golden Tiki, Echo & Rig, Ferraro’s Ristorante, North Italia were on the list when I purchased my tickets. I didn’t notice Bowltastic or Craving Creole there but it is possible that I missed them?

Anyways

between my husband and me we got to sample almost everything food available. There was lots of wine and booze but we skipped that because it was 95 degrees here so it was too hot to enjoy booze outside.

First bite was something steak with Chile crisp from Project BBQ that was tasty and tender.

Next bite was very different than what I enjoyed from this restaurant previously.

Crack Shack Chicken sandwich was cold, unseasoned, and tough……

Peinto Thai served cold orange chicken, cold chicken wings, OK Asian pasta and fried rice.

Evel Pie served Pizza Cup Cakes

Off The Vine served only two vegan empanadas every 15 minutes……So almost nobody got to try this……..

Anima By Edo served very good detailed crab appetizers

Slater’s 50/50 was serving bacon macaroni and cheese balls and had the longest line of all the food venders.

But their balls were dry inside.

California Fish grill served a reasonably good mini fish platter.

Caviar Cartel Club served Italian Beef Sandwiches that weren’t so flavorful.

Not the best funnel cakes from Braud’s Funnel cake cafe (heavy and only a little powdered sugar)

Scallop plate from Water Grill Seafood Co

Refrigerator COLD pork sliders from Grillin McMillian

I am not planning on attending this festival next year.
