text: It's that time of the year again to get out of the cold and head to the beach! Trade the snow for sand at The Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival presented by FOOD & WINE. Get ready for some foodie fun in the sun and fabulous evenings at parties with the Moon over Miami.
  #SOBEWFF take place February 21-24 and promises to be better than ever with Festival Director Lee Schrager creating new events like From Big Apple to Big Easy hosted by John Besh, Marcus Samuelsson, Aarón Sanchez and Jonathan Wax-man. Then, after spending the day at the Grand Tasting, head to the Fontainebleau Miami Beach for Wine Spectator's Best of the Best. Dinners like Chicken Coupe hosted by Andrew Carmellini, Garden to Glass hosted by Emeril Lagasse featuring Bar Lab Cocktails & My Ceviche, and White on White Dinner at BIANCA hosted by Michael White with Brian Massie are sure to impress; just remember to wait 30 minutes after eating to go swimming.
  Lastly join Guy Fieri's Reggae Jam with Ziggy Marley Live presented by Ziggy Marley Organics featuring Cuisine of the Sun by Ortanique and friends, at The Official Festival Closing Party.
