New York Wine & Food Festival
I was lucky enough to score a ticket to one of the Grand Tastings of the first annual New York Wine & Food Festival. It does help to have a roommate in high places...thanks MB!! I didn't really know what to expect, but I had no doubt this was going to be a very cool NYC foodie adventure!

In a giant tent on Pier 54 in Hudson River Park, dozens of restaurants and wine suppliers set up tables offering samples of their cuisine.
Some of the highlights included:
- A mushroom dumpling in a truffle sauce from Wakiya
- A mini Pannetone cake with apricot and raisins
- Pineapple salsa and Chipotle tomato soup from Rosa Mexicano
- Manchego rice and grilled vegetables from Pamplona
- A sampling of cheeses from Murray's
It was a gastronomic experience Miss Menu will not soon forget!!
