Nearly 450 attended the 2nd Annual Santa Barbara Chowder Fest on October 23, 2011 at the Montecito Country Club to enjoy 30 varieties of Chowder and the offerings of 10 wineries and 5 breweries among a host of amazing auction items and one fabulous raffle where one person Tim Trager of Hill & Trager walked off with 52 botles of wine!
Judges Michael Cervin, Chef William S. Bloxsom-Carter and Chef Edie Robertson all had a tough time narrowing their choices down to the top three in each category of clam and creative.
