The culinary side of Colorscape
NORWICH – The culinary offerings at the Colorscape Chenango Arts Festival are nothing like a typical food court.
According to Pat Pirrone, who has chaired the event’s culinary committee for the last three years, the food purveyors are artists themselves, with their art complimenting the other forms being exhibited during Colorscape.
“I think it all goes together nicely,” she said.
Pirrone said Colorscape’s culinary court is “a little more upscale ... both in appearance and offerings” than what one might expect to find at a festival or fair. And it’s all about diversity.
“We have a variety of different food choices at the show,” she said, explaining that everything from sausage and peppers, burgers and barbecue to schnitzel, Greek food and vegetarian fare will be on offer to tempt the taste buds.
This year’s East Park culinary court will feature 11 vendors. Among them will be returning festival favorites like the New York Almond Company; Traveler’s Kitchen; B&B Kettle Corn; On the Street Concessions; Angelo’s; Karolyn’s Krossroads Cafe; and the Norwich Rotary Club.
There will be some new vendors as well, one of which is Island Cow Ice Cream.
“I’m looking forward to trying it myself,” Pirrone said, of the Maine company’s organic ice cream.
Sam Lupo & Sons, Inc. of Endicott will also be on hand, dishing up their famous chicken spiedies, pork sausage and all-beef hot dogs.
In West Park, Serendipity Cafe will be serving up homemade cookies and beverages, Pirrone added.
Each vendor will be in the running for two awards: The Best Booth Award, sponsored by The Parson’s Daughter, and the Taste of Colorscape Award, sponsored by Hoppies. Judges for each of these awards will be circulating - and sampling - throughout the weekend.
According to Pirrone, the culinary court will once again be sponsored by Morrisville State College this year. Representatives from the state university will be on hand with information about the school’s culinary degree program.
And festival goers will be in for a special treat on Sunday, when Central New York Bounty sets up adjacent to the East Park culinary court. They will be selling locally-grown produce and other items available through the service, which links consumers with local producers. It will be CNY Bounty’s first appearance at Colorscape.
