USA TODAY Wine & Food Experience starts in New York with Antoni Porowski, Bella Twins
The USA TODAY Wine & Food Experience tour is right around the corner. It will kick off Sept. 7 by making a return to Brooklyn, New York City.
The New York event will have a star-studded lineup and will feature 35 of New York's finest chefs and restaurants. Guests will be able to sample foods from award winning establishments like Hunt & Fish Club, which is led by two-star Michelin chef Chad Brown and Bien Cuit, a bakery recognized by The New York Times.
In addition to trying out top-notch bites from participating restaurants, attendees can watch break out sessions hosted by "Queer Eye" star Antoni Porowski, Food Network's Alex Guarnaschelli and WWE's Brie and Nikki Bella, dubbed the Bella Twins.
Both Porowski and Guarnaschelli will host cooking demonstrations as well as meet and greets there. Guests will have a chance to "Wine Down" with the Bella Twins during their meet and greet event with wine from their personal label, Belle Radici. This event is currently sold out. You'll also need to buy separate tickets to the Grand Tasting to enter the Wine & Food Experience. Scroll below for a list of confirmed restaurants.
Wine & Food Experience tour has 10 stops across America
If you missed a chance to catch the twins in New York, they will also be making appearances at other tour stops, including Chicago, Cincinnati, Detroit, Indianapolis, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
