Let the festivities begin! Sugar Land Wine & Food Affair partners up with IWSC Group North America for its four-day culinary and learning experience! Located in Fort Bend County, the Sugar Land Wine & Food Affair embraces its cultural diversity by partnering up with leading regional and national culinary talents. This festival include award winning chefs, sommeliers and mixologists. There will be pop-up dinners, events, a two-day Sip & Stroll, learning experiences, and the Grand Tasting.

The festival kicks off with two dinners, Thursday evening: The Boiling Point and the Italian Invasion.  The Boiling Point is a seafood boil, with southern influence from Louisiana’s Cajun crawfish boils and the Low country’s shrimp boils. The Chefs in charge of this evening’s dishes are David Bancroft ( Alabama), Bryan Caswell (Texas), and Edward Lee (Kentucky).  A portion of proceeds from this dinner will go benefit the Southern Salt Foundation.
