The New York City Wine and Food Festival is being held
Thursday, October 13 through
Sunday, October 16 this year. The festival itself spans the entire Big Apple meaning it's huge, seriously check out their
site. Things can also get pretty pricey and listen, we’re not all living out our business tycoon fantasies...yet! However that shouldn’t exclude us from enjoying delicious food and great wine, so to help you here are some of the best events for under $100. If you’re interested make sure you get tickets soon as they are sure to sell out fast.
Saturday, October 15, 1–2 PM
