Salsa festival? So, are we talking the music or the condiment? Good news: It’s both! Eleven blocks of downtown Redwood City transforms into a salsa-dancing playground on Saturday with three stages of live salsa, Latin jazz and reggae. And that other stuff? It’s all over the place, with salsa tasting from top local chefs all competing for bragging rights for best salsa in the Bay Area. (Contest tasting takes place from noon to 5pm with winners announced shortly afterward.) There’s also art projects, entertainment for kids and—praise be!—tequila tasting as well.
