Coming up on Dining Around . . .

On July 26, we'll be live from the 30th annual Gilroy Garlic Festival!

Gene and Joel travel not so far - to our very own capital of American Garlic, broadcasting live from this pungent park.

Guests include Bill Christopher, owner of Christopher Ranch, the family farm with the largest production of garlic in the nation. Also Ryan Scott, of the Mission Beach Café, and our very own KGO Contestant for the Sunday Chefs' Challenge. And before the program ends, we'll meet the Garlic Festival's Winning Home Chef!

Join us Saturday morning for another great show on KGO AM 810, San Francisco (and streaming at KGORadio.com.)
