I’ve never been a fan of rhubarb. But, I have learned that you often get to try new dishes when traveling. The rhubarb festival might be a great way to try it again and maybe find great new favorites.
I’m not a huge fan of rhubarb either but I am keen to visit the festival since it is so famous locally! And with so many events taking place at the festival, I’m sure I’m bound to discover at least one rhubarb dish I like!
