Foodista Fringe - Beaten, Seared and Sauced Event

Image by Random House

Last week, I offered you Guy Fieri's cookbook, and this week in Foodista's Fringe, as I'm calling it, I'm giving you another great food book benefit.  This one is an event, hosted by the Museum of the City of New York, which showcases author, Jonathan Dixon, author of Beaten, Seared and Sauced , in a behind-the-scenes look about about becoming a chef at the acclaimed Culinary Institute of America

The event provides an intimate chat with Jonathan and fellow food writer, Andrew Friedman in which they'll explore the ups, downs and frequent roller coasters of working in one of the most competitive culinary settings in the country.

It's also neat that the event is being presented in conjunction with the Moveable Feast exhbition, which highlights a NYC-based mobile produce program called Green Carts.

Foodista readers get 50% off this event if you mention "The Foodista" when making your reservation. 

Here are the vitals:

5 Napkin Burger Introduces An Outdoor Cafe

Here's a fun update, especially relevant since the weather was so darn gorgeous today - 5 Napkin Burger is opening up a new outdoor cafe area.  It'll be quite extensive, seating around 60 people who'll be able to eat and drink al fresco. 

In honor of this new development, 5 Napkin will be extending their awesome Happy Hour special to this new outdoor area.  So anytime between tomorrow, April 27th and Thursday, May 5th (Cinco de Mayo) you can enjoy $2 sliders, 5o cent Hell's Kitchen Wings, $2 Pork Taquitos and $4 drafts.  Not only will you get your money's worth, I think you'll also really enjoy these goodies.  My personal recommendations are the turkey slider (pictured above), the original 5 Napkin Burger slider and the pork taquitos.  Enjoy the outdoors and this delicious new deal.

5 Napkin Burger - 35-01 36th Street, Astoria, NY 11106
