Food Network's NYC Wine and Food Festival Recap


This weekend was action packed for us as we were able to step out off the office and off of the farm and immerse ourselves in the Big Apple! October 11th-14th marked the 5th Annual Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival and we participated in two events; "On the Chopping Block: A Roast of Anthony Bourdain" and the "Farm to Table Brunch" hosted by Chef Richard Blais.

"On the Chopping Block: A Roast of Anthony Bourdain" was a who's who of the celebrity chef world, bringing together, among others, Mario Batali, Guy Fieri, Rachael Ray, Eric Ripert, and Ted Allen (along with a handful of comedians assembled by Carolines on Broadway) to celebrate and roast Anthony Bourdain. We were honored to be part of the welcome reception, where guests mingled, chatted and sipped champagne while the sun set over the Hudson River on Pier 60. Below is a photo of our spread, offering two of our fresh goat cheeses (one rolled in pepper and the other in herbs) and our always yummy Triple Cream, which was a big hit with all the guests!

The "Farm to Table Brunch" was also a blast! Hosted by Chef Richard Blais and Whole Foods, we joined other New York businesses and farms to serve up a locavore brunch in the freshest way imaginable. We paired our new reduced fat yogurt with Ola! Granola, fresh berries and our Triple Cream at the yogurt bar, and the results were fantastic!


We can't wait to see what's in store for us next year at the Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival!

  1. Elated to know about this beer festival. Last month, arranged a wine tasting party by booking the best event space around. Decorated the venue with ethnic ornaments and arranged a grand party there. Enjoyed a lot at this event.
