Le Grand Fooding 2012 Food & Drink Event Sep 19–23, 2012

Le Grand Fooding New York is back!

This year, in a borough yet to be visited by Le Fooding, on not one, not two, but on many a day, come join us, Action Against Hunger and our amazing international chefs and friends, day and night, standing up or sitting down, in the dark, under the sun, surrounded by speakers and/or stoves, for an unprecedented tour de force.

1. Le Clicquot Brooklyn Tour September 19-22, 2012

Le Fooding is taking over four Brooklyn hot spots for 100% champagne dinner-performances! Expect unseen creations including, depending on the dinners, forbidden foie gras, potted plants and many other dangerously delicious dishes...
