Tastings NYC, Presented by Cook. Eat. Drink. Live. November 6, 2008

By now you have probably heard the buzz about Tastings NYC, New York's premier food & wine experience taking place November 7-9, 2008 at Pier 94 in Manhattan. This three-day culinary extravaganza was created to fill the void of that "One Big Event" which is missing from the New York culinary scene, and reaches food & wine enthusiasts in the Tri-State area. Crain's New York Business states, "New Yorkers no longer have to travel to South Beach or Aspen to get their food fest fixes."
