Valerie Bertinelli and Alex Guarnaschelli
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the 16th annual Food Network & Cooking Channel South Beach Wine & Food Festival (SOBEWFF®) is offering a special, limited-time-only Fifty Shades of Food promotion. With this deal, Festival fans who buy two or more tickets to Barilla’s Italian Bites on the Beach online using the code VDAY17 will get two surprises: two complimentary tickets to an even sexier Festival beach party, BACARDÍ On The Beach with Beats by Rev Run & DJ Ruckus, and a copy of Fifty Shades of Chicken: A Parody in a Cookbook by Clarkson Potter.
Designed to kick-off the Festival’s Miami Beach events, Barilla’s Italian Bites on the Beach will bring together 30+ chefs on Thursday, February 23, to take guests on a culinary tour of Italy. Keeping the party going, A-list ladies Valerie Bertinelli and Alex Guarnaschelli will play host; one of Australia’s most popular rock bands, Little River Band, will bring the tunes; and attendees will sip on complimentary glasses of Aperol, Campari, Cynar, Folonari, Frangelico, Heineken Light, Melini, Strongbow and more. When the bites are all gone, out comes the BACARDÍ. Just two days later, on Saturday, February 25, the Delano South Beach will set up a beachside tent to host the first-ever BACARDÍ On The Beach. At this late-night fête, partygoers will get to dance to beats by Rev Run and DJ Ruckus, while indulging in bites and beverages from 20 of South Florida’s top food spots.
Ready to buy your tickets? Hurry up, before they’re all gone. The Fifty Shades of Food promotion starts today and runs through Midnight on February 14.
Happy dining!
