Austin Gluten-Free PizzaFest

Hi readers! Although I will be out of town that night (very disappointing) I wanted to share the media release regarding the the Austin Gluten-Free PizzaFest that will be taking place:

For Immediate Release - Contact: atxglutenfree@gmail.com


AUSTIN, Texas – February 3, 2011 - Come rub elbows with Austin’s gluten-free thought leaders and local pizza industry insiders to see how the gluten-free lifestyle is impacting the community, and what it means for the future of pizza. Follow up the event with 10 days of gluten-free pizza recipes on: ATX Gluten-Free.

Jessica Meyer (ATX Gluten-Free), Karen Morgan (Blackbird Bakery) and Rachelle King (Blinded Bite) have joined forces to bring you the ultimate Gluten-Free Pizza Fest Party.

Join us Thursday, February 24, 2011 (7– 9pm), as we taste a variety of gluten-free pizzas. The gluten-free crusts will be provided by Blackbird Bakery and Gluten-Free Kneads.  The event will be held at:
 
Parkside Restaurant
301 East 6th Street
Austin, TX 78701
With over 20 million Americans suffering from gluten intolerance and Celiac Disease, restaurant owners are taking notice and adding gluten free options to their menus. It’s revolutionary.

Others are encouraged to join in on the fun by contributing one or more of the following to ATX Gluten-Free between February 7-11 and February 14-18.  Find out more about online participation here.

Your contribution to Pizza Fest will be as a blog post on your blog.  After the event is over, Jessica Meyer will write a summary blog post with links to everyone’s pizza post.
Participants are invited to follow tweets, add comments and share thoughts utilizing the hashtag #GFpizzafeston Twitter.

With more than 100 pizzeria’s and pizza centric restaurants in Austin, what a great event to attend to learn more about gluten-free pizza and gluten-free dining options!
