Free NYC Dessert Fest July 26, 2009
New York, New York
Free NYC Dessert Fest is a free monthly walking tour, centered solely on those succulent works of art; desserts. Purchases of desserts are additional.
This is our 9th consecutive monthly tour of the city's neighborhood sweet spots. Today we’ll explore Union Square which has 5 delicious dessert makers. For starters a small Parisian bakery offers the freshest macaroons, followed by a dense Belgian brownie, our third stop has a totally original pretzel croissant, next up are gourmet chocolates, and our last course is home-made gelato.
To help support the good work of Food Bank For New York City, a non-profit helping to feed the hungry, we ask for a $5.00 donation per person. 100% of all donations go to charity.
Since December 2008 your donations have helped feed 36 New Yorkers for a month. We wish to thank all who generously donated. If you’d like to donate online, please go to PayPal at; http://www.paypal.com... and send your contribution to; [email protected]
