I see so many great food-related festivals and events going on in NYC throughout the year, but I believe I probably miss out on even more that I never hear about! So I thought it would be fun to put together a group to keep each other informed of events and hang out at them. For example, I just realized that I missed the Lobster Rumble a few weeks ago, but will be 100% attending the upcoming Bacon Bash and Cheesemonger Invitational! (as of 6/23/12) Please feel free to schedule events, and/or sen …

Enough of North Indian food already - you've got to learn make Goan food, and once you've eaten Goan food, all food with heavy cream and ghee will be a thing of the past. We could share and compare recipes or I can show you how to whip up a delicious tempting meal in 40 minutes. Goan food is aromatic and very inviting using many Indian spices and mainly tumeric, the new found organic antiseptic medicinal herb. Fish and coconut are the other two big ingredients in Goan cooking. I am hoping you gu …

This group is for people who want to experience many Asian foods and drinks with a focus on pub style cuisine.  Mainly basement sake bars and yakitori spots. But Izakaya is an umbrella group description as I have other events planned outside what would be described as an Izakaya. Things like tea & dessert, Korean BBQ, any local Far East events like movies and concerts. Also its not so much an "exchange" as you won't find any American style bars/eateries on the agenda. Sharing language and cultur …

I wanted to start a meet-up group for those of you who are usually embarassed to go out with your friends and start talking about what matters most in your lives... your feline companions. I know that personally whenever I am with my fellow crazy cat friends, all we end up talking about is our animals and the adorable and funny things they do - not to mention the animal welfare world in general (as well as our jobs, social lives, etc... we have not totally lost it (yet) to the animal world). I w …

There are a ton of meetup groups with the word dinner in them. But I have found most to be laden with ridiculous rules, paying fees to the organizer or "pay in advance". I have had amazing success with now two "pop up" group dinners and figure it's time I officially organize my own. Trust that I will always be open to many cuisines and restaurant suggestions. Age, occupation, where you reside is irrelevant to me! And I will always consider price range at any place chosen. My only " rule" ? Don't …
