Orange has its International Food Fair, Irvine has its Global Village, Newport Beach has not only one food fest, but two (more on that later), and this Saturday, October 17th, Los Alamitos will have one. It will mark the 9th year for the Taste For Los Al, which takes place at The Shops at Rossmoor from 6 p.m. – 10 p.m.
