Taste of the Upper West Side --Food, Drink and Music under the Tent, May 30-31

Be sure not to eat lunch this weekend, because you'll want to save room for this weekend's Upper West Side Comfort Classic food event.  Sponsored by Celebrity Cruises and others, this is a don't-miss if you love to graze and sample. Travel Channel's Adam Richman returns for the fourth consecutive year, along with Food Network star and Iron Chef, Alex Guarnaschelli of NYC's Butter Restaurant. The duo will oversee 40 restaurants from the Upper West Side showcasing their most innovative comfort dishes, and competing to win this year's "Best Comfort Food Dish". There will be new restaurants as well as neighborhood favorites. The high-energy excitement of the evening will be amplified with renowned wines, creative cocktails, and the returning beats of NYC's DJ PHRESH.

Some of my favorites that'll be there are Luke's Lobster, Parm, Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola and Serafina Upper West Side.   To buy tickets, visit here. Under the tent at Columbus Avenue, between West 76th and 77th streets, New York City.
