Top winemakers compete to see who is the best chef
The Paso Robles Rotary will again bring Paso Robles‘ top winemakers together to compete to see who is the best chef, and organizers expect the tickets to sell out fast.
The 17th Annual Winemakers’ Cookoff will be held Aug. 15 from 6-9 p.m. at the Paso Robles Event Center. Organizers are limiting attendance to just 1,200 tickets. Tickets are $85 and are available at Eventbrite.com. This year the event will feature multiple local breweries as well.
“The Paso Robles Winemakers’ Cookoff has become one of Paso Robles’ most-popular wine, food and music events,” says event co-chairperson Vicky Silva. “Participating wineries or breweries pair their grilled culinary creations with their finest wines or beers and compete for both Judges’ Choice and People’s Choice awards the day of the event. We are expecting tickets to sell out fast.”
All proceeds from the event benefit local high school scholarships. Thanks to the event, The Paso Robles Rotary contributed $30,000 to Paso Robles High School scholarships last year. Since the event’s inception, over $400,000 in scholarships has been awarded to local high school students. IQMS is returning as the title sponsor of the event.
“The IQMS sponsorship of the Rotary event underscores our company’s commitment toward the education and support of our local youth,” said Randy Flamm, President and C.E.O. of IQMS. “As we continue to prosper here, our involvement in helping to further the goal of an event like the Cookoff is one way of giving back.”
