It's the best food in America, and best of all you can enjoy it without getting on a plane.

Plus in our wine tasting tent (separate admission required), a carefully selected tastes of great American wines with seriously delicious nibbles to go along with them, chosen and presented by Best Cellars' Josh Wesson and A-16's Shelly Lindgren.

That's not all. There will be chef demos by Bobby Flay, Guy Fieri, and Michael Symon, along with a who's who of Bay Area chefs, including Nate Appleman (A16), Nancy Oakes (Boulevard), Bruce Aidells (Aidell's Sausage), David Kinch (Manresa).

An Edible Schoolyard Exhibit so that everyone can see how much of a difference it makes to have kids involved in growing their own food.

And of course music from the likes of Little Feat, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, and Marshall Crenshaw
