Slow Food — a vital cultural movement that challenges people's relationship with the food they eat — gears up for the holiday weekend to celebrate the joys of eating healthily and ethically. Cooking workshops, foraging hikes, and thought-provoking discussions with culinary legends like Alice Waters pack this festival's calendar, while slow dinners at restaurants like Destino and Boulevard pack festivalgoers' stomachs. Most lectures, gourmet road trips, and dinner salons require advance tickets, but if you're looking for something on the cheap, a stroll through the lush Victory Gardens or the bustling marketplace at the Civic Center is free and open to the public.
