It&rsquo;s a very fun afternoon of small dishes, drinks, and mingling. Also, you&rsquo;ll be supporting the Street Vendor Project, which advocates on behalf of vendors who work really hard to feed us, and who now contend with thousand-dollar fines for frivolous infractions. Since I loves me my food and my First Amendment, I&rsquo;m proud to support (&ldquo;support&rdquo; is such a nice word for overindulgence) an event that promotes my two favorite freedoms. <br /> <br /> Saturday, September 26, 2-7 p.m. <br /> Queens Museum of Art (Address and map in the website) <br /> Tickets: $80 in advance ($100 at the door) are tax-deductible. <br /> <br /> http://streetvendor.org/vendys/ <br /> <br /> Every year, the Vendys garner more and more press, from NPR to Good Morning America, so it&rsquo;s likely that tickets won&rsquo;t be available at the door. Please let me know if you plan to join us and I hope to see you on Saturday the 26th! </p> 2009-09-26T14:00:00Z 1050407792 Blog join-us-at-the-vendy-awards-dinner 2009-09-09T19:40:58Z <p>Dear Diners,</p> <p>Apparently, running an epicurean singles beach house and a dinner series for epicurean singles at the same time is actually kind of hard. We'll pick up right where we left off in September. (Depending on how my season out here at the beach goes, we may do a dinner sooner.)</p> <p>In the meantime, please continue to encourage your fun, interesting single friends to register on the site.</p> <p>Have a great summer &amp; I hope to see you at our next dinner!</p> <p>Voraciously,</p> <p>John</p> 2009-06-01T17:38:00Z 1050407791 Blog see-you-in-september 2009-05-31T21:42:48Z
