Food Network star Guy Fieri, local chefs duking it out Iron-Chef style, and plenty of great food, wine, beer, and music, including Dr. John and Patti Smith. A big deal!

San Rafael Food and Wine Festival

Marin county artists, restaurants, and food producers do the weekend festival thing, with demos and tastings aplenty. Admission is free and the location is scenic, an elegant 19th-century country estate house.
