BRES presents CrawFête at Mockler Beverage

Plenty of mudbugs will be served in all forms at CrawFête
On Thursday, April 18th, 2013, the Baton Rouge Epicurean Society and Mockler Beverage Company will
host ‘CrawFête’, a gourmet crawfish tasting and live auction.  Some Baton Rouge's best chefs from some of our finest restaurants will be on site to prepare outstanding crawfish dishes complemented with the craft beers, wines, and spirits from Mockler.

I attended this event last year and had a blast.  It's always interesting to see what the chefs come up with when given a common ingredient like crawfish but then letting their minds run wild with possibilities.

The restaurants cooking at CrawFête include:

Bin 77, Blend Wine Bar, Crowne Plaza Hotel, Culinary Productions, Galatoire’s Bistro, Hot Tails Restaurant, Juban’s Restaurant, Latil’s Landing Restaurant, Mansurs on the Boulevard, Ruffino’s Restaurant, Sammy’s Grill Catering, Stroube’s Steakhouse, Sullivan’s Steakhouse and more!

Tickets for CrawFête are $50 a person and are available by visiting www.crawfetebr.com.

Proceeds from CrawFête benefit local childhood health & nutrition programs. The Baton Rouge Epicurean Society, a 501c3 non-profit organization is dedicated to the education of childhood nutrition Girls on the Run, Boys & Girls Club of Baton Rouge, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, 4-H leadership programs, Pro-Start culinary high school programs, Epicurean scholarship funding and the cultural preservation of the Greater Baton Rouge area. The Baton Rouge Epicurean Society was formed by local food and beverage professionals in the Greater Baton Rouge Area.
