Gorging out, boozing up and partying down with Andrew Zimmern, Guy Fieri, Giada DeLaurentiis and more

Foodies gorged out, boozed up and partied down at the third-annual New York City Wine & Food Festival, which took over Manhattan's west side from Oct. 7 to 10. The glutton-bomb confab brought together the country's biggest food celebs and top chefs, who indulged in over a hundred tasting events, cooking demos and—natch!—liquor-rific bashes.
The evidence? Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto belted it out at a sushi-meets-karaoke soiree, Bobby Flay cooked up some killer potato-chip-topped burgers at a patty showdown (and won!), and Guy Fieri held court at the fest's dessert bonanza, trailed by a gaggle of googly-eyed groupies.
Fieri summed up it up best when we asked him about the weekend's bombastic festivities: "So money, baby!" Ka-ching!
