First Gastronomic Festival of Bilbao in New York
May 8 to 19 at the United Nations Delegates’ Dining Room
Depending on your point of view, Spain is the culinary center of the universe or the country whose foremost chefs like to play with their food. See for yourself by dining among the diplomats when seven visiting Basque chefs (and New York’s own Eder Montero, of Tía Pol) turn the Delegates’ Dining Room into one of the region’s legendary gastronomic societies. Reservations are required for the $25 lunch buffet; call 212-963-7625, and bring photo I.D.
