Thai Rock and Neir’s are just two of many who will be sampling their delicacies at the gala!
As anybody who knows me or this web site knows, I’m all about global cuisine in Queens, so it’s an honor to be a media sponsor for the 14th Annual Global Cuisine of Queens tasting event to be held on Wednesday, October 18, 2017 at 6:00 pm at Resorts World Casino New York in Jamaica, NY. More than 40 of the Queens’ hottest restaurants, caterers, bakeries, and breweries— including Big Alice Brewing, Singlecut Beersmiths, Dumpling Galaxy, De Mole, Historic Neir’s Tavern, Tortilleria Nixtamal, and Thai Rock—will be part of the gala event, which is a benefit for The Boys & Girls Club of Metro Queens.
For dessert there’s the pride of College Point, Cascon Cheesecake and old school confections from Schmidt’s in Woodhaven. I’m offering you dear reader/eater a chance to win 2 VIP tickets to this festive evening. Here’s what you need to do: write a haiku about international cuisine in Queens and leave it in the comments. The winner be selected a week from today. Good luck!!
world food takes me home
travel Queens to eat the world
Sleep happy tonight
Arepas, Momos,
Bahn Mis, Souvlaki, and Spleen.
Everything’s in Queens.
On tender warm scents,
Fish bollos fill autumn air.
Memories bubble.
Love to eat all the things
Can’t afford to travel
Good thing I have a MetroCard and live in Queens.
Wontons in flushing
Doubles with lots of pepper
Has got me blushing
Queens brings together
Scents from all across the globe
Perfume of foodies
All across the world
Each culture has its dumpling
I’ll feast on them all
Repping the world’s globe
from a little spot in queens
while doing good deeds
Almojábana, Double Doubles, Momos
Eddies, Lemon Ice King, Sugarcube,
feed my Queens soul
swiping metro cards
filling our bellies throughout queens
the world fare
