Hungry? Our events calendar is packed full of Edible events around the city. Here’s what’s happening this week.
Sam Adams and the Red Hook Lobster Pound truck got together at David Burke kitchen last week and, in what could be a preview to Good Beer on July 31st, showed how well beer and lobster rolls go together. Brewer Jennifer Glanville pointed out how the bright complexities of the Summer Ale are balanced by the richness of lobster.
In our latest issue, Amy Zavatto explores the history–and temporary death–of the cassis industry in the Hudson Valley. Thanks to the development of fungal-resistant versions of the black currant bush, the dark berry is making a comeback.
Reserve your table now for Eat Drink Local Week at one of our partner restaurants and see what creations local chefs come up with for our 8 featured local ingredients: spinach, eggs, goat (milk, cheese, yogurt, meat, etc.), radishes, rose wines, porgy, fava beans, and hops. The possibilities are endless, but tables are not. Book yours in Manhattan, Brooklyn or the East End now.
With summer just two days away, temperatures are rising and so is our thirst. What better way to beat the heat than a cold beer? In our Edible Guide, you’ll find links to over 20 beer bars in Manhattan and Brooklyn where you can grab a draft, a can or a bottle of your favorite brew.
On Tuesday, July 24, fourteen concurrent dinners, each prepared by a top New York chef using produce from an urban farm, will take place around the city in private homes. Proceeds of the evening–A City Farmer, A Chef, and A Host–will go to support two food activist organizations we love: Just Food and The Sylvia Center.
Edible Brooklyn has always fostered feasting on our foodshed, but the philosophy leaps off the page during our annual eat Drink Local Week.
Join us at the Fifth Annual Taste of Greenmarket on Wednesday, June 27, 2012 where we’ll feast on fancy fare inspired by the summer’s bounty at our local Greenmarkets and sip seasonal cocktails, all in honor of pioneering women in agriculture.
Summer is nearly upon us and city sidewalks are stained with the juice of ripe, plump berries. With all these fruits at hand, we were happy to see that Chef Mike Colameco–host of the daily radio program “Food Talk” and “Colameco’s Food Show”on Channel 13–has teamed up with King Arthur flour for an upcoming cooking demonstration called Baking Summer Berries, Pies and Tarts.
At Edible, we’re all about encouraging excellent food and drink experiences. That’s why folks read our magazine and subscribe to our free weekly enews. Now we’re offering a Breville immersion blender to one lucky person who refers a friend to our enewsletter. Plus, the more friends you refer, the more chances you have to win!
As we kick off Eat Drink Local Week with our second annual Meet Your Maker, June 20th, take a step behind the scenes with a tour of one of four awesome local Brooklyn businesses: Brooklyn Brewery, Brooklyn Winery, NY Distilling Co. and Toby’s Estate Coffee–samples included! Then join us back at Brooklyn Brewery for beers, a GIANT SUB from the Brooklyn Kitchen and snacks from Acme Smoked Fish.
