Featuring eclectic culinary favorites of resident food critics, Robert Sietsema and Sarah DiGregorio, The Village Voice is proud to present our third annual curated Choice Eats tasting event. Handpicked restaurants from all five boroughs featured in the Fork in the Road and Counter Culture columns are represented, along with complimentary craft beer pairings, wine and liquor beverages.
 
Set amid the backdrop of the historic 69th Armory on Lexington Avenue, the famous building where the movement called Modern Art was first presented to the American public in 1913, including the just-completed Marcel Duchamp canvas, “Nude Descending a Staircase,” guests will be invited to sample delicious cuisines that would otherwise require days of travel.
 
Featuring 50+ restaurants and food from over 35 nations, including Vietnamese, Italian, Uzbekistani, Brazilian, Cambodian, Russian, Tunisian, and Cajun/Creole among many others, Choice Eats stands out as a food event that highlights the hidden gems of New York City’s diverse culinary landscape.
