City Flavors on the High Line

City Flavors, a Night Of Local Bites, will be happening on the High Line on Monday, July 23rd.  This is one that is right up my alley.  20 emerging food entrepreneurs will debut their treats this evening.  These food entrepreneurs are residents of New York City Public Housing Authority (NYCHA) and graduates of Food Business Pathways (FBP), the intensive 10-week program funded by Citi-Community Development equips these food entrepreneurs with the tools to launch their food businesses.  This event is a fundraiser to help the FBP graduates start their enterprises.

Each City Flavors participant has been paired with a mentor from some of the city’s top restaurants and food purveyors to help them prepare for this event.  Some of the mentors include Andrew Tarlow, owner of Diner, Marlow & Sons, Reynard, Roman’s and Achilles Heel, Bill Telepan, executive chef of Oceana and Ariane Daguin, chef, and founder of D’Artagnan to name a few.

Should be a really fun and obviously delicious evening!  Buy your tickets here.
