Imagine sampling delectable dishes from more than 40 of New York’s best restaurants — all in one night, all under one roof. New York Taste, a culinary event held for charity, turns this foodie dream into a reality.
On Monday, November 2nd, some of New York’s most celebrated chefs and mixologists will come together to serve up their signature dishes, all to benefit City Harvest. Held at the Skylight Lounge in SoHo, guests will be able to sample mouthwatering fare from an impressive lineup of participating restaurants, including Corton, Craft, Le Cirque, Morimoto, Bar Boulud and many more.
Hosted by New York magazine culinary editor, Gillian Duffy, a portion of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to the hunger-fighting organization. General admission tickets are available for $175 and VIP tickets for $250 at http://www.nymag.com/taste.
The two-hour event runs from 7:00-9:00 p.m., but a VIP ticket will grant you an extra hour to graze and chat with the chefs, starting at 6:00 p.m., as well as a VIP gift bag. Crowds gather quickly so get there early! Last year’s event drew more than 1,000 guests.

You have no idea how much I love the food network and celebrity chefs…from Morimoto to Eric Ripert to Bobby Flay! OOH this is so exciting! I wish I could spare $175…

The New York Taste is great event, I would love to be able to spend one evening eating fine cuisine. I will be sure sure to have that date pin on my calendar.

I love that New York has all sorts of events like this one. It is such a great idea to raise money for this cause, plus one gets to try some of the best foods, by many top chefs of the city.

Yes, I really love Bobby Flay as well. He is awesome.

Since when was this article about the food network? I’m tired of people associating cuisine with the buzzin’ food network.
Jeez, Celine, don’t you know there are ACTUALLY restaurants out there…
its not just on TV.

I can’t from watering just from reading this. I ready to sink my teeth into some of this food right at this month. I’ve been trying for sometime now to get my rich but cheap friends to take me to Le Cirque for a little birthday dinner.

Here’s a great way to have a taste of New York’s finest restaurant all under one roof. I’m delighted.

I think we should all just calm down here. Btw, do you have any apartments nearby this event?

Your alcove stidio is lovely and roomy. I can not wait for the economy to picks up so we can do all the fun activities we use to.

What a great idea! New York City has everything. I wish I could afford it…
October 28th, 2009 at 5:20 pm
oh man. how wonderful. 175 is less than the price of two dinners out at any of the restaurants represented, so to only pay that for food from 40 would be amazing! i wish i could be in new york that weekend. i’d need an apartment right near by to just roll myself home afterwards.

It looks like the “hunger-fighting organization” in question was City Harvest, a really great organization.

I saw the commercial for this last weekend. I wish I could have been there to try all of these great New York chefs’ creations!
