Over the weekend we were invited out to Knott's Berry Farm to check out this years Boysenberry Festival. 

This is one of our favorite events of the year at any park and this year was definitely not a disappointment. Great food, amazing park. 

​Let's get to the good stuff shall we!!

Welcome to the Knott's Boysenberry Festival!!

If you'd like to take some of the event home you can get your own Boysenberry Plant!!

But we're just here for the food. =)

Our first of the day, Pierogis and Short Ribs. Both were absolutely amazing of course. I'm also not a big "Sour Cream" person, but Boysenberry Sour Cream? I'm all over it!! 
Picture
We also had to try the Coconut Macaroon, it was delightful and we still have one left. Guess what I'm eating after I finish this update. (Hey, I had a good workout today) =) 
Picture
Some of the booths are inside, some like the Chicken Wings are outside. 
Picture
Let's check out some of the amazing springtime decorations!!

Love the Huff and Puff ... still want a grown up version of this classic ride 
Picture
Let's eat some more food shall we!! 
Picture
Boysenberry Sausage ... this was quite simply my favorite thing we ate all day 
Picture
Boysenberry Quesadilla and Boysenberry Cornbread. You can get the Cornbread at the Boardwalk BBQ. 
Picture
Elote ... ​fantástico
Picture
The Boysenberry Hummus had a surprising kick to it, but it was yummy 
Picture
Not usually a fan of Boba, but loved this. 
Picture
Here's what's on the Tasting Card this year. 

You have 8 items to try, but it's not one for each item. You could get 8 of the same thing if you want this year. A nice change that allows you to revisit some favorites later in the day. And that's what we did. We tried everything once, and then had our favorites again later. 

Also, keep an eye on the a 'la carte prices, as the Macaroon is only $1.59 whereas most of the other items are $7-$8.

Sadly we forgot to go back and get some of this later in the day

We had an amazing time as always, the park was busy, but didn't seem too bad to move around and get food. All of the lines moved very quickly and we had a fantastic time. 

 Be sure to check out the Boysenberry Festival until April 9 . Click the link for full details. 

We'll be back tomorrow with a full HangTime update!!
