Taste of Sedalia

Tonight, Lorry and I went to the annual Taste of Sedalia. Usually this has been a fun and pretty tasty event in the past. Since we decided to go at the last minute, we paid $12 at the door. This is a pretty reasonable price to try all you want from various Sedalia restaraunts. Also includes booze in the price of admission. In the previous years there was wine, not this year, only beer so since I am a hard liquour drinker, I found no thrill in that. I looked forward all afternoon to this and planned my areas which I was going to hit first and which freebie booths to get the most from. I am totally disappointed that first, Russell Stover wasn't there with their carmel apples, second the Ivory Grille had only potato pancakes with crappy applesauce to go on top, they have way more to sample than a simple potato pancake( stuffed pepper soup or even their salads would have been better)....third the Pepsi booth didn't have the special cans of Mt. Dew to give out as they have in the past. I will say the Patricia's booth had the best viddles with a variety of delicious seven layer dip, potato soup and steak samples that rocked. The best was the chocolate chimichanga......yea it was way good. Ivory Grille had the signature cheesecake with chocolate notes on top that is good. The Calagario's(sp?) pizza place was there, I found out about this place almost a year ago when going through Cole Camp after my office family went to a driver's funeral. This pizza is the bomb, I have never tasted such a great pizza in my life, so needless to say I visited that booth twice. Even though I am very dissappointed in the event, I did leave feeling like a bloated toad and it only cost $12 to eat as much as you can before they start packing up. Which some booths run out before the end at 8pm, but many towards the end will give you a little extra to try to get rid of their stuff. Next year I will find out before which places are planning on being there and then decide if we are going to make the trip.
