W

hat better way to spend 
your Sunday Funday than 
at a food and wine festival? 
Many spent their Sunday, 

September 23, hanging out downtown in Fort 
Walton Beach doing just that! From 2-5pm, the 
Downtown FWB organization hosted their 3rd 
Annual Taste of Fort Walton Beach Food and 
Wine Festival. The Landing Park along with 
the weather made the perfect backdrop for the 
casual atmosphere of the festival. Vendor tents 
were lined up along the walkway with various 
samplings of eclectic wines, food from local 
restaurants like Cowheads, Twisted Grape, 
Fubar Pizza, TASTE Tapas & Wine Bar, KC’s 
Sandbar, and others. There was even the Big 
Red Truck of Destin on site, too. Live music by 
I’magene kept people dancing and having a good 
time.

After all the fun, drinks, and food, the best 

part of the whole event was knowing partial 
proceeds will be benefi ting Children in Crisis, 
Inc. Florida.  It truly was a great way to spend a 
beautiful Sunday afternoon!
