Come join me as I take a deeper look into the world of balsamic vinegars. There are so many varieties available and differences among these vinegars? the only way to understand is to taste our way through them!

In addition, we will also have a friendly "Iron Chef" competition of dishes made with the tasting ingredient - balsamic vinegar!

Those interested in attending must create a dish highlighting balsamic vinegar as one of the main ingredients. All dishes will be shared potluck style, with a small sampling that will also be judged. The winner of the competition will be awarded with bragging rights and a special prize.

The $2 event is to cover servingware (plates, utensils, napkins, etc), drinks and purchase of the winning prize.

       So much balsamic so little time! 
    •  Great dishes made it hard to choose a winner! Thanks to all that attended! 
    •  Overall, this was a very nice event. Joelen does a great job as host and makes her place very welcoming. I enjoyed meeting the other Meetup participants who brought creative, tasty dishes. This event was a great bargain, since I only spent a few dollars for the dish I made plus the $2 meetup fee, and got to enjoy a gourmet potluck. 
    •  This was fun. I learned a little more and had some great food! 
    •  Interesting mix of recipes, great food. It was fun to taste the difference the number of years in aging made.
