The 2014 Southern Westchester Food & Wine Festival is a unique culinary celebration showcasing the talents of renowned restaurants, wineries, pit masters, cheese mongers, breweries, chefs and culinary personalities. A can’t miss #foodie event, this year’s festival kicked off Friday with a celebrity chef cook off at Pepe Infiniti. A brief photo recap of the event is below.

Chef Franklin Becker with IntoxiKate creator Kate Schlientz on the SOWE Festival’s red carpet. The chef teamed up with Graham Elliot, challenging Rocco DiSpirito and David Dibari for a celebrity cook off. The contest ended in a tie.
Yeah, this happened when I revealed to Rocco DiSpirito that he was my #foodiecrush! (Very nice of him to play along!)

One of my favorite dishes of the evening from 8 North Broadway… yellowtail tuna housed in an oyster. Below? A pickled peach juice. Just add a little champagne and chase down the oyster.
