Introducing Vancouver’s 1st Annual Foodie Feast

An evening of amazing food & friends to benefit the Vancouver Food Bank.

Dear Follow Me Foodie Readers, “followers”, friends and overall supporters,

I’m really excited to finally be letting out this big secret I’ve been holding out on! I’m so lucky to always have food, so now I’m giving it back!

Follow Me Foodie, Sherman’s Food Adventures and Urbanspoon are proud to introduce the Vancouver’s 1st Annual Foodie Feast to be held at District 319.  All net proceeds from the event will benefit the Vancouver Food Bank.  We will be taking non-perishable and cash donations at the door.

We invite you foodies to sample food from 10 stations, and let me tell you the food will be AMAZING. It will send you straight to foodie heaven! Sherman and I have been honoured to hand pick the 10 restaurants and even help them determine which menu items will be featured. The menu items we’ve selected and tried will showcase the best food for you to experience. All items will be Follow Me Foodie and Sherman’s Food Adventures APPROVED.

Among the 10 restaurants represented include Bella Gelateria, El Barrio, Falconetti’s, Hapa Izakaya, Kitchening with Carly, La Belle Auberge, ManCakes Bakery, Mochikas, One Planet Catering, and Red Star Seafood.

Along with our title sponsors, Bella Gelateria, Four Seasons Vancouver and Urbanspoon, there will be over $2000 worth of prizes to be won.  As we finalize the details, there will be further posts updating the complete menu, restaurant selections and other goodies! If you or your company is interested in sponsoring the event for a good cause please contact: mpak]@[followmefoodie.com

Since you and Herman hand picked the restaurants, I’m sure the food will be great! This event may be the first time I try Mochikas.

@David – Both of us tried to secure the restaurants we thought would best represent what we want to do, highlight places outside of downtown, showcase the fine dining and the hole in the walls :)

Although we were given the opportunity to hand select 8-10, they don’t represent our top 8 or anything. Restaurant selection was also based on availability, diversity, and area. On the other hand we do support the ones we have selected though.

The menu we’ve selected showcases what we believe in for each restaurant. Sherman and I do believe in our selection of items that will be featured in particular. The restaurants aren’t our “tops”… although some of them may be… but regardless they have a product/item/philosophy we believe in :) thanks for the support David!

Mijune,

You need a tweet button on these posts! If you need help I can get it done for you in a matter of minutes as I think you’re using Thesis here.

Just a thought….just tweeted this and it was an extra step to get your twitter name into the tweet.
