Highlights at Eat Vancouver 2013

This past weekend I visited the Eat Vancouver exhibition at BC Place Stadium and found it to be a very organized event with a lot of different food and drink to taste. Since this is a food festival geared towards consumers I expected to encounter crowds. I visited on the Saturday and went about an hour after the show opened and was easily able to visit most of the booths before the crowds set-in making for an enjoyable time to chat with chefs and taste the different dishes in the food court area as well as the booths in the exhibition.

Some of my highlights during my visit is what I tasted and these are the ones that I loved.
