Chef~ Owners Repeat at Houston’s Grand Wine and Food Affair and Maine’s Arts in the Inns Festival
For the second consecutive year, The Inn’s Chef ~ Owners, Brian and Shanna O’Hea, were invited to participate in the Grand Wine & Food Affair at the Marriott Sugar Land Town Square in Houston, Texas as well as the Kennebunk / Kennebunkport Arts in the Inns Festival. In the Texas event, Brian and Shanna were among 40 guest chefs from the United States, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, and Spain who offered exotic and sumptuous culinary samplings complemented by selections from over 100 wineries. Arts in the Inns is a unique charitable event that pares leading local artists and chefs, whose culinary creations are designed to reflect a particular artist’s work. Once again this year’s event was a big charitable, culinary and artistic success.
