With over 100 food related companies in attendance displaying their wares, there should be more than enough to keep even the  non-cook entertained.  

Special cooking sessions (additional cost) include multiple 2½ hour hands-on cooking instruction with leading Washington DC area chefs.  You’ll not only learn to cook great dishes, but enjoy the meal you just created.  Wine and beer tastings are also offered. 

On Saturday, author and Bon Appetit magazine Editor-in-Chief, Barbara Fairchild will be signing The Bon Appetit Cookbook from 1:00-2:00 p.m.
