wearing bérets paint at their easels. The air 
is filled with music,laughter, and the
tempting aromas of French cuisine. Surely this
must be France? Actually, it's the 11th

Saturday and Sunday, July 17 and 18 (Bastille Day
Weekend), from 11 a.m.to 7 p.m. in Santa Barbara's

dozens of chefs preparing fine French food...
