A beloved utensil gets its own darned festival in Pleasanton

Forks, is there anything they can’t do?

You can use them to scratch an itch, fend off a weak mugger, get a signal for your transistor radio – and you can eat with them, too, which will be happening a lot at Pleasanton’s Forkful food festival.

On Sept. 7, 15 of the city’s restaurants are gathering to serve diners the “perfect forkful” of their cuisine. Love bite-sized portions? This is the fest for you. Kick it off with a champagne reception at the Museum on Main Street, then stroll the city’s downtown while snagging artfully curated orts of food.

There’s Zachary’s Chicago Pizza, Experience Burma, Beer Baron Whiskey Bar & Kitchen, Primrose Bakery, Bocado: Un Petit Bistro and many more (including some with alcohol pairings). Vote for your favorite restaurant at the end to nominate 2024’s Forkful winner.

Oh – and the best part? Everyone who participates gets to take home a commemorative event fork.

Details: Festival takes place 3-5 p.m. Saturday; visitors asked to check in at the Museum on Main, 603 Main St., Pleasanton; $60.54; pleasantondowntown.net/forkful-2024.
