Pasadena Wine Festival Oct. 9

Where can you get a Sprinkles red velvet cupcake, try a great Merlot from Napa, play bocce ball with your friends, and dance under the stars to live salsa??? You can find all of this and more at Southern California's hippest, outdoor wine event The 2nd Annual Pasadena Wine Festival. The special event takes place October 9, 2010 at the spectacular Los Angeles Arboretum and Botanic Garden in greater Pasadena. The hours are from 2:00pm to 10:00pm.

Savor great food from LA's top gourmet food trucks such as the Border Grill, Sprinkles Cupcakes, Worldfare Bustaurant, Dosa, Crepe'n Around, and the infamous Grilled Cheese Truck.

Pala Casino will also be bringing their executive chef team to whip up delicious tidbits showcasing their bevy of excellent restaurants. Sample fine cheeses from Somerdale of England and Champignon from Germany, as well as a delectable array of local cheeses from Real California Cheese.
