National Food Festivals and Food Events, July 20-27, 2010

by POPSUGAR Food 1

Midway through Summer, the food and drink festivities just get better. Tomorrow marks the beginning of the seventh annual Tales of the Cocktail, a blowout of the nation's brightest bartenders that convenes in Crescent City. If beer is more your cup of choice, turn to the many brewfest goings on this week, taking place everywhere from Michigan to Oregon to the mountains of Colorado.
I've got a penchant for anything off the beaten path, and while I won't be able to make it this year, I've got Whiting, IN's, Pierogi Fest on my radar. What's on yours? Let us know in the comments below.
