To the delight of history enthusiasts and food and wine lovers throughout the region, Friends of Sutter's Fort is proud to present a unique culinary experience -- "Feast at the Fort" -- on Saturday evening, September 21, 2013. Now part of the city-wide "Farm-to-Fork" effort, this is the fourth year for this signature event held at Sutter's Fort State Historic Park (SHP). With KFBK News Anchor Kitty O'Neal as celebrity emcee for the evening, "Feast at the Fort" guests will enjoy a delicious four-course, sit-down dinner prepared by Sacramento's top chefs amid a beautiful evening setting inside the historic walls of Sutter's Fort SHP. As a special treat and given John Sutter imported Mexican chocolate for enjoyment at the Fort, the theme for the event this year is "cooking with chocolate."
