Events for Foodies - February Week One
There are few places on Earth like NYC when it comes to a diverse selection of amazing food from all around the world. To help ease the plight of your stomach, I’ve put together this brief list of some of the best food-centric events taking place this week.
The Takedowns are back for the year of 2015 and the first in line concerns that most important of winter foods - soup. Head down and watch a group of determined chefs battle it out for prizes and bragging rights. And if you feel like you’ve got the skills to step up, join the competition yourself.
bitten: a food conversation - Scholastic Auditorium - Feb 6th
This food-centric event has a lot less to do with eating than it does with learning all about what it is that you’re eating. Hear culinary experts talk about the future of agriculture, the way food influences pop culture (and vice versa), the way humans’ relationship with food has altered over time and plenty more educational subjects. You’ll come away with a whole new understanding of something that most people take for granted.
