RISBJ Staff | Apr 03, 2014
PROVIDENCE, RI – The Taste Trekkers Food and Travel Expo, an event held exclusively for foodies with a passion for culinary travel, will return to Providence, Rhode Island on Friday, October 3 and Saturday, October 4 2014. This unique Expo brings together chefs, farmers, brewers, winemakers, food and travel writers, artisanal food producers, and everyday food lovers for a day of discovering and experiencing cuisines from different regions around the globe.
This year’s Taste Trekkers Expo will be divided into two days to accommodate the growing numbers of interested food enthusiasts. Friday, October 3rd will be geared more towards professionals in the food and tourism industries, whereas Saturday, October 4th, will feature programs designed specifically for the general public. These activities, to be announced in more detail at a later date, will give attendees the chance to take part in expert-led sessions on foods from different regions, experience worldly cuisines in a Tasting Pavilion and attend Ted Talk-Style presentations to magnify their culinary knowledge.
“Our goal is to demonstrate the importance of discovering new cuisines while traveling by expanding attendees’ global palate and exposing them to foods from different regions they might not have considered before,” said Seth Resler, Founder of Taste Trekkers. “On the flip side, this event also presents food to industry insiders as a means of driving a tourism economy and provides the hospitality industry with important expert advice on how best inspire travel through their cuisine.”
More information about the Expo can be found at www.tastetrekkers.com/expo.
Taste Trekkers is currently accepting submissions for food and tourism professionals who would like to speak at the Expo. Speakers can apply at www.tastetrekkers.com/call-for-speakers.
