Appetite for Awareness: A Gluten-Free Cooking Spree 2012

To raise awareness of and funds for celiac disease, the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA) is hosting its 8th Annual Appetite for Awareness, a gluten-free food festival that pairs physicians and chefs to serve gluten-free dishes from the region’s top restaurants.

Prominent Philadelphia-area restaurants including Melograno, Alma de Cuba, El Rey, Rouge and Spiga will participate in the celiac and foodie-friendly “Gluten-Free Cooking Spree.”

Additionally, Appetite for Awareness will feature chef demos; a Children’s Pavilion with kid-friendly, gluten-free food and family activities; a Gluten-Free Beer Garden with flat-screen TVs to watch the Phillies and Eagles games; and the chance to enter to win a one-year Mercedes-Benz lease.
