The Fort Worth Food + Wine Festival returns for its 10th anniversary this month, hosting this four-day event, which welcomes new restaurants this year, including Dos Mares, a seafood concept from the Don Artemio team; Bocca Osteria Romana, specializing in scratch-made Italian cuisine; and The Sicilian Butcher, showcasing house-cured meats and fresh pasta. Tex-Mex lovers can enjoy Mercado Juarez’s mesquite-fired dishes, while brunch enthusiasts will find whole-food-focused creations from James Provisions at the Rise + Dine event.
FWFWF also elevates its entertainment with Visit Fort Worth as the official music sponsor, bringing blues artist Michael Lee & the Wartime Limousine to Burgers, Brews + Blues, followed by headliner Danny Joseph. The festival closes on a high note with country star Max Stalling and Red Dirt legends, The Great Divide at the Ring of Fire event.
Fort Worth food writer Celestina Blok will also debut her new cookbook, “Cowtown Comfort,” compiling 60 iconic Fort Worth restaurant recipes for a taste of the city’s rich culinary heritage.
