The Seattle Food & Wine Experience is coming up Feb. 28 at Seattle Center, and the organizers are giving away a pair of tickets to our readers.
What can you expect?
For the wine part of the experience, the posted list of participants includes DeLille Cellars, Erath, McCrea, and 100+ more, with breweries to boot. Around 20 eateries are signed up, from Maximus/Minimus (out of hibernation for the day) and Frost Doughnuts to Artisanal and Campagne and — yes, seriously, check out what these folks have been doing – the Tulalip Casino’s restaurant, Tulalip Bay. Kathy Casey will give a signed cookbook to the first 300 guests.
Tickets are $49 apiece (with a portion going to the non-profit Beecher’s Flagship Foundation), which gets you unlimited samples of food and non-alcoholic beverages, and 50 tasting tickets for alcoholic drinks (at 1-3 tickets per taste). Interested in a chance to get in for free? Just leave a comment here telling me what you like (or, if you prefer, what you don’t like) to see at food festivals. We’ll pick the winner using a random number generator at 9 p.m. PST on Feb. 2.
Updated 2/2 to announce that our random number generator has picked comment #19, Dave, as our winner! Congratulations!

Love seeing what is new and going on in the food world. We live where there is so much wonderful fresh seafood I would love to see how this is enhancing local chefs menus.
New takes on food that aren’t just gimmicks and great food items from places that are usually too far away for me to visit.
Likes: Organized vendors, engaged staff — tell me why I should eat this. If i like it, tell me what else I’d like. Live music — helps pass the time in long lines.
I like tasting the delicious food from places I haven’t been to!
I love trying out little sample dishes prepared by local restaurants. I also enjoy trying out food and drinks that are brought from the places in the world where I have never visited.
I would love to see scruptuous finger foods that look like art on your table that guests will comment on and easily dig in.
I enjoy learning about local food sources, cooking classes, CSA farms.
Sad to say, I’m often a little intimidated about going out to eat at schmancy places. So for me the appeal is getting access to food that I would normally miss out on (due to my own irrational fears, of course, but still).
This sounds really cool.
Hate overpriced, tiny tastes that I think I could have done better myself.
