Sweet Auburn Festival & Vendors

Crowd Shot @ the Festival - so many people!

Another crowd shot - it got really packed around 2pm.

Delicious looking food. I loved this vendor table setup because of the pineapples. :)

These t-shirts were very cute. Love them!
Hello! How are ya? It's a little late, but I still wanted to share with you my outing to the Sweet Auburn Festival in Atlanta. While at the festival a few weeks ago, I came across a couple of food vendors that I really liked.


Rumtastic Cakes had the most moist & delicious rum cakes I've ever tasted. Personally, I would have preferred the cakes without the rum since I'm not a drinker (I don't like the taste of alcohol), but even so, these cakes were super delicious. The niece & nephew agreed. 6 Thumbs Up! The owner of Rumtastic Cakes was very nice. I loved her personality. Check out her website if you ever need some delicious desserts. The prices are reasonable and these little cakes were the perfect size. Larger sizes are available. Check out her website at www.Rumtastic.com for more information and to place an order.


Polish Sausage (beef)

Just in case you are wondering, I didn't eat any of this sandwich, but it looked so darn good! I really wanted to take a big bite, but I was afraid that since I hadn't eaten any beef...or pork for that matter, in quite a while, that tasting this yummy looking treasure would not be a wise decision. So, I persuaded the Niece & Nephew to order it. They gave it 4 thumbs up! I can only image! They shared this sandwich and an order of fries. After walking around for a while, they actually wanted another one, but by that time, we were too tired to walk back to find the vendor.
This sandwich had everything on it: beef polish sausage, ground beef, peppers & onions and some type of sauce. Just look at it. Foodgasmic!!!! The vendor who prepared this sandwich was Time To Eat Kitchen out of Birmingham, Alabama.  They are willing to travel to different states to cater at your events. Check them out on Face Book.
What a huge turkey leg!

I'm not sure who the vendor was for this huge turkey leg (I think it was from the vendor pictured above), but it was delicious. I took 2 bites off of it and had to pass it along. It really was delicious though. To me it tasted a lot like ham...no kidding. Of course the Niece&Nephew happily took care of it for me. :) I wrapped it up in foil and took it home. Once we got home, they demolished it. It was really that good.

I love going to street festivals to try out the food. For me, the food is the best part. I had a lot of fun. I even shared a funnel cake and ate a pickle. It's okay to splurge every once in a while. One vendor had some delicious lemonade according to the Niece&Nephew. We all had a great time and we can't wait for next year's festival.

Question(s): Do you like going to street festivals? What's your favorite part...food or shopping?
