"The traditional Northwest Salmon Bake on Saturday night in a grove of ancient oaks is the weekend's most popular and distinctive event - and the most entertaining meal I have been to at any wine event in the world."
- Nicholas Lander, Restaurant Correspondant, Financial Times
Over 50 guest chefs team up with Northwest farmers to transform locally sourced, sustainable ingredients into edible art.
