The California Food and Beverage Community Meets Here
The California food and beverage scene is really something that you just can't describe. I thought long and hard on how to write this page and just couldn't seem to get my arms around it, and then after doing more research I realized why. The California scene is just too big to describe. If you were to make California it's own country it would list 7th for the
biggest economies in the world, and is the largest economy in the United States. Las Angeles alone has the fourth biggest economy compared to the rest of the states in the union. One out of every eight Americans live in California. It boasts the Avocado Capital of the World, The Raisin Capital of the World and the Date Capital of the World.
Then their is the draw of the wine. California grows more than 300.000 tons of grapes each year. It produces some 17 million gallons of wine annually. What goes better than expertly prepared food with the local beverage? Although the state motto "Eureka" was adopted in 1849 alluding to the discovery of gold in the Sierra Nevada the term could easily be coined today if they had just found "Wine Country."
You do not have to do too much research to see why the many factors that California has to offer has drawn some of the most talented and exciting Chefs, Servers, Bartenders and Managers in the industry. It does not take much of a stretch to see why so many people want to prove they have the right stuff in the industry prove themselves in arguably the biggest and best food and beverage markets in the world.
Our normal layout for the state pages simply just doesn't work when it comes to California f&b. We have added the resource section for the state here on the California food and beverage page, but on each city page you will find the majority of the festivals and event listings (they are simply too numerous to list here). So please select a city or region that you are interested in and we will break down the California food and beverage scene that way.
