Kentucky environmental attorney Sanders says Bobby Flay bringing his mastery of the flame to the Bluegrass in October 2009!

Like many Americans, I love a well-cooked meals and often enjoy watching a master chef at work. One of my very favorites to watch is Bobby Flay, who seems to wage war on bland food preparation and always seems to want to take his food up a notch or two from the ordinary. So, I am please to announce that Bobby Flay is coming to the Bluegrass State in October 2009.

The Incredible Food Show is coming to the Lexington Center and Rupp Arena October 3 – 4, 2009. The Incredible Food Show is two-day food lover’s dream is packed with more than 120 exhibitors including Kentucky Proud producers and growers, specialty food companies, cooking-related equipment and wineries.

In addition, cooking demonstrations and seminars by regional and local chefs will be presented by Sullivan University’s culinary school. The Incredible Food Show is highlighted by two presentations featuring Chef Bobby Flay, author and show host of Food Network’s “Throwdown” and “Boy Meets Grill” and one of the featured chefs on The Food Network’s “Iron Chef.” Catch one or both presentations in Rupp Arena at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Saturday.
