Weekend uncorked on NSB's Flagler Avenue

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- It was food, wine and merriment over the weekend on Flagler Avenue for the inaugural uncorked -- a wine- and food-tasting event along quaint Flagler Avenue on Friday, Saturday and most of today, before windin down just before 5 p.m. as planned.

Dennis Shepherd, a DJ hired to play jazz during the outdoor venue said the "turnout was really good," considering this was the first one put on by area merchants.

Noah Campbell, the executive chef at Norwood's restaurant and wine shop, 400 Second Ave., said he handed out morethan a hundred samples this afternoon of his four-cheeses revioli.

"I use all fresh ingredients," Campbell said, adding he cooked a special wine dinner the night before for 40 patrons at the restaurant. Both sides of Flagler Avenue were bustling with patrons throughout the weekend cultural event.
