We have some mouth-watering international cuisine at the Fall Festival on Saturday, September 14. You'll love James and Teresa's kitchen: Enjoy Latin foods. Their empanadas are outstanding. Get a side order of plantains! Then there's Poynor's Pomme Frites for some genuine German bratwurst. Then go back for some dank dessert at Anya's Gone Nuts. Check out their baklava!
