Sweet Tea Booth on a Hot Fair Afternoon

It is that time of year again for the Montgomery County Fair.  And oh yes, this is one heck of a place for a Food Adventure.  For 164 years, Daytonians have been packing the fair for food and fun.  The event will be held in the same place as always, although local level talks about moving the fairgrounds in a couple of years continue to swirl.

But this is a Food Adventure, so we will concentrate on the eats you gotta try.  Take it from us and our patented “Must Eats.”

 

MUST EATS at the MONTGOMERY COUNTY FAIR:

Wings from Dave’s Concessions

— THE ASIAN CHICKEN WINGS at DAVE’S CONCESSIONS:  You can’t miss the huge “Broasted Chicken and Broasted Potatoes” sign that drapes this amazing booth.  Also, a huge grill teases the crowd with incredible aromas of chicken cooking.  But the thing to get here is the Chicken Wings.  Deep fried, served whole and drenched in any sauce you can’t go wrong.  Our suggestion is get the Asian Sauce.

— THE DONUT GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH at THE GOURMET GRILLED CHEESE BOOTH:  A glazed donut with cheese, pan grilled and with pickles and tomatoes.  It is sweet and a tad salty, but surprisingly good!  This kind of stuff is what Food

The 164th Annual Montgomery County Fair will start 8/31/16

Adventures are made of ….

— THE BLACKBERRY COBBLER from JEAN’S HOME COOKING: Served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, this literally made our day.  It was like being transported to your grandma’s house and the cobbler had just come out of the oven.  Get lost in this dish, and take in the taste.  The warm cobbler and the sun, melt the ice cream slowly for a creamy experience.  We promise you will be impressed.

Just Announced:
Free admission for lunch 11am to 1pm Wed thru Friday

— THE HUGE SWEET TEA’S:  It is gonna be warm and humid, and nothing zaps that like an ice cold sweet tea.  They have a 99 cent size and a huge ass mega size.  Get the biggest one they have … you will kneel with thanks for this day saving item.
