It’s beginning to look a lot like pre-pandemic New York. Restaurants are reopening — and even more encouragingly opening — at a furious piece. And so, after a two-year hiatus, is the New York City Wine & Food Festival. The four-day extravaganza is set to run from Oct. 14 through Oct. 17. Forbes reports:

Highlights from the recently-released run of show include the ever-popular Blue Moon Burger Bash hosted this year by Rachael Ray at Pier 86; Drag Brunch emceed by chef and cookbook author David Burtka, and his husband, five-time Emmy Award winner Neil Patrick Harris; and, of course, the Grand Tasting — showcasing a global assortment of freshly prepared bites paired alongside world-class wine, beer and spirits. All of it unfurls under the shadows of the Manhattan skyline in Hudson River Park’s Pier 76.
