We love everything about the Food Book Fair. It makes it virtually impossible to capture the tasty in a paragraph. That’s why each year we choose one break out component and chew on that. This year, Literary Speed Dating. Description unnecessary but since you asked, the 90’s speed dating phenom mashed up with a mix of heavy hitting literary agents. We’re talking editors and publishers from Phaidon, Clarkson Potter, Abrams Books and ICM Partners++. Attention artists, There’s even an illustration publisher at the table. Mix it with a couple dozen authors-to-be and you might just have a cake. No not really, but a book on cake for sure. It should go without saying, seats are limited. If you want in on the book Bumble grab a spot fast. See you in the Dewey Decimal Catalog. What? They stopped using that you say? Friday, May 12th from 2 – 4pm in NYC.

This weekend is a little like Christmas week when we were five years old. The anticipation of thousands of specialty food vendors coming to New York for the Fancy Food Show makes our mouths salivate and eyes widen. The tasting bites always reveal hidden gems but equally exciting is checking out the unique packaging design. We geek out like that. The Brooklyn Eats Trade Show smartly piggy backs on the Fancy Food Shows massive attendee list. It a more manageable show than the massive Javits Center for sure. This year we’re looking forward to checking out some of our favorite artisans and their new edibles. Morris Kitchen has some lemon preserve syrup we’re jonesing for. Pazzi Pasta might be making a play on Sfoglini. And, of course, we love popping in on our old friends like Dona Chai and Brooklyn Delhi. It’s well worth the $10 to get your Brooklyn Food on. June 24th from 10AM-4PM @Downtown Marriott in Brooklyn.
