Food & Wine Festival




Just like the title states - plenty of both to be had (with some beer and other interesting concoctions of alcohol).

Arriving just after lunch with a few mates from school, we made our way into Lansdowne Park (home of the Ottawa 67's, the minor league hockey team). Touring around the interior of the building, we found many wines - Australian, South African and Kiwi - as well as local and some international beers.

After indulging in food, beer, wine and whatever else - we made an early exit (with a lift home from Keri!) after almost 3 hours. The line up outside was unbelievable, winding its way up 3 flights - showing it truly was a good event to be part of (to put it into perspective, it would be like lining up on the inside of the MCG, heading up the top of the Great Southern Stand - with a waiting time around 2 hours - judging by how slow the line was moving - if at all - one in, one out!)
