What happens at the New Orleans Wine & Food Experience?

Specifically, I'm wondering about the Wednesday, May 25 wine dinners. Among the restaurants participating is Restaurant August. I have a reservation there the same evening. Will I notice anything different? Is it the case that those who have bought tickets will simply be enjoying a special menu?

    Go to one where they pour with both hands and show a generosity of spirit, Watson. In my experience, Galatoire's delivers that, Bayona does not. August? Not sure, know the food will be good, but not sure which winery is paired with them. I find it's best to pick a restaurant that is affiliated with a distributor/importer, so you can try various wines vs. just those by one winery.
