Bobby Flay, Giada De Laurentiis, Gail Simmons, Tom Colicchio, José Andrés, Rick Bayless, John Besh, Danny Meyer, Mario Batali, Ming Tsai, Jacques Pépin and Marcus Samuelson are just a few of the recognizable celebrity chef names who made the trek to Aspen, Colorado this weekend to take part in the 30th annual Food & Wine Classic.
While the chefs were busy cooking for patrons and pass-holders during the day, at night they were able to let off some steam at one the many non-stop parties.
And with sponsors like Belvedere, Patrón, Casa Dragones and Stella Artois, everyone had more than a good time—including one late night dance circle that included at least three famous chefs.
The festival kicked off at a "wines from Spain paella" fiesta hosted by celebrity chef José Andrés in a $27 million mansion on Buttermilk Mountain.
Andrés, who took a moment to pose with fellow chef Andrew Zimmern, was working in the kitchen preparing food for guests even more than he was partying.
Bravo host Gail Simmons was in attendance with her friend Nilou Motamed, an editor at Travel + Leisure magazine who frequently makes TV appearances.
