Food Festivals in February
Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Did you have a big enough break from the culinary binge that went on over X-Mas? Have you done your fair bit of sport since then? If so, then we have a few good tips for a great culinary weekend.
There is for one Restaurant Week in New York City until the 6th of February. Steak at the Meatpacking District? Dim Sum in Korea Town? Lasagne in little Italy? You have it all on the tips of your fingers – presumed you are lucky enough to be in NYC next week!
Another event we’re dying to go to: Salon du Chocolat in Tokyo, Japan. It is not only a well-known trade and industry exhibition worldwide in the chocolate field, but also an experience by itself. It’s on until the 14th of February and the fare promises heavenly tastes from the finest chocolatiers from all over the planet. Yum yum!
In case you need some inspiration right now, we would like to recommend a great NYC food blog to you: Orangette by Molly Wizenberg has won several awards and has been up and running since 2004. It surely is a great source of lovely recipes, of which all are illustrated with unique photos.
To top it all off, you should check out this foodshow over on KCRW: With ‘Good Food’ you can discover great restaurants that you’ve never heard of, the politics of consumption, explorations of cultures through their food customs and some of the most interesting people who devote their lives to various elements of the food supply. It’s on every Saturday and you can receive it via STREAMIUM.
