Sheepshead Bites is proud to announce that A Taste of Sheepshead Bay, the biggest tasting event this side of the East River, is slated for Thursday, January 23, at 7:00 p.m.

For the past two years, the event took place in October. This year, we made preliminary announcements on Facebook that we were holding it in November. However, we decided to make it an even bigger, even better event – and to do that, we need more time. And so we’ve set the date for January 23, and we’re happy to say we also have a good chunk of the lineup in place.

We’re going to tell you a lot more about the event as the date nears, and will launch a special section of the website specifically for it. But, in the meantime, we do want to reach out and give a hearty “Thank you” to il Fornetto (2902 Emmons Avenue). For the third year in a row, Sheepshead Bay’s premier waterfront restaurant has signed on to be a sponsor of the event, helping keep the costs down for you, our readers.

If there’s a restaurant you’d like to see there, let us know in the comments (and let them know, too!). And if you have any other suggestions about the event, please do tell us. We’re working hard to make it the best event we’ve done yet.

If you’re a restaurant owner interested in participating, simply call (347) 985-0633 or e-mail nberke [at] sheepsheadbites [dot] com.
