Bacon Festival sizzles Sunday
6/12/2015, 8:15 a.m.
Love bacon?
Then this is your weekend.
The Richmond Bacon Festival returns Sunday, June 14, to the 17th Street Farmers’ Market with the motto, “Everything is better with bacon.”
From 11 a.m. to 5 pm., the third edition of the festival will offer a full array of music, food and fun — all scented with the smell of your favorite food.
The bacon obsessed will have plenty to choose from.
Forty-three restaurants and food trucks will be offering bacon-inspired concoctions.
That includes such items as bacon-infused clam cakes, bacon macaroni and cheese, bacon waffles, bacon cheddar fries, bourbon bacon s’mores ice cream sandwiches and chocolate bacon ice cream.
Expect big crowds. There is no admission fee, but bacon plates run $4 each.
