Thanks for voting yesterday, my friends!  What a great response!  Let’s stir up some more Food & Wine excitement!

OK, so what festival dishes did you choose yesterday?  Which did you vote through to the next phases of this exercise?  It was surprising close!

Hops & Barley’s 2014 Florida Grass-fed Beef Slider

In fact, it was so close that 9 items (and not 8!) will live to see another round of voting!  They’ll come back in the near future!

• Lobster and Seafood Fisherman’s Pie – Ireland
• Roasted Pork – Dominican Republic
• Pork Spareribs – Sustainable Chew
• Florida Grass-fed Beef Slider – Hops & Barley
• Battered Shrimp Taco – Mexico
• Sauerkraut Pierogi with Pork Goulash – Poland
• Gaoli Beef Slider – China
• Buttered Chicken – Africa
• Roasted Verlasso Salmon – Patagonia

Are you ready for another “round”?  Same rules as yesterday.

I present two groups below. You can vote for up to FOUR dishes in each group!  In other words, please cast up to EIGHT votes today!  Unless there’s a tie, the Top 4 in each group will progress forward in our selection process!
