Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival presented by FOOD & WINE founder and director, Lee Brian Schrager, who also serves as the vice president of corporate communications and national events at Southern Wine & Spirits of America, Inc., is pleased to unveil the new fifth anniversary program of events. Taking place October 11 - 14, 2012, 100% of the proceeds benefit the Food Bank For New York City and Share Our Strength's No Kid Hungry campaign. To date, the Festival has raised over $5 million to help fight hunger.
"We are thrilled to celebrate our 5th year in partnership with the festival and to create a bigger-and more delicious- program of events for Food Network fans to eat, drink and contribute to ending hunger," said Brooke Johnson, President Food Network and Cooking Channel.
"This year's program is truly a celebration of what the Festival is all about," said Schrager. "Returning favorite events get a make-over, we move to new venues throughout the city and have come up with a whole series of fresh events to satisfy any palate, each perfectly paired with the finest wines and spirits in the Southern Wine & Spirits of New York portfolio."Videos
