This one looks like a sleeper. No formal website. Understand schedule. A great cause. With this past weekends NYCWFF debacle and douchery, we need something that promises to be back to the roots of why food is so celebritized in the first place. Food meets technology and we can actually eat at this one. Future of Food 2016 is so future it is hosted in Queens. This could be the smartest, tastiest three and a half hours of your week. Thursday, October 20th from 6:00 – 9:30pm in Queens, NY

The World’s Fare is not only the best food pun for an event we’ve heard in a while. It’s a proper Queens food in Queens celebration of everything this glorious borough has to offer. Meaning the single most culture dense square footage in perhaps the world. With your ears and your tongue as your guide, the Fare will treat you to as many international bites and sips as you can muster while you listen to music from all corners of the globe. We’re talking Don Ceviche with a Modelo, D’Abruzzo and a Red Stripe or Rib-in-a-Cup and a New Belgium. If that’s not enough it’s going to be under a giant metal globe. Now you get the pun right? No Will Smith and giant alien bugs this time just tasty bites for 2 straight days. Snap up some tickets because this is bound to be the best trip around the world without leaving your backyard boro. April 28th-29th 12pm-9pm at Citi Field in Queens.
