Early on, we had the fruits of summer, peach and strawberries; but this time, let's have a look at a festival for one of the western old-time favorites: buffalo wings! In Buffalo, New York, the festival is nothing but pure consumption of these hot, spicy chicken treats.
By which according to last year's statistics, almost 27 tons of chicken wings and sauce was consumed in the festival alone. Hoping that the town would break the record this year, they are inviting you, tourists, to join in the festivities. There's an admission fee of five dollars per each adult though (what? You'd think it was free?)
And speaking of hot and spicy, get this, a festival for chile! No, not con carne, but chile itself. Welcome to the Hatch Chile Festival which is held every September 5-6 (or at least a weekend, as far as I know). This tiny town of Hatch in New Mexico is practically a miner's town for the rest of the season, but when the festival times, it reaches up to more than two to three thousand who attends.
The hot desert surrounding the area complements the cuisine, as you are expected to eat a lot of these spicy winger-dingers. If spicy isn't your kind of thing, the scenery could make it up for you. You have a lot of places to visit while your friends dig in the festival.
Well, if seafood is your main squeeze, then have a go at Rockland Maine for their annual Maine Lobster Festival, held during July 29th to August 2nd. It is a lobster-lover's heaven when its festival time, which an estimated twenty thousand pounds of lobster shelled out and eaten during these five days of shellfish, lemon butter, the sea breeze and the good people of Maine. The venue is cool (beside the water), and is one New England summer festival you shouldn't miss. Eight dollars per adult for admission.
