Autumn in New York is the<\/em> season for delectable dishes, and this month has two unmissable events on the calendar.<\/p>\n

First comes the annual LUCKYRICE New York Feast at Mandarin Oriental on September 22. Founded by Danielle Chang in 2010, this eagerly awaited event will once again showcase the city\u2019s most enticing Asian food experiences, along with avant-garde spots, fine dining establishments and local superstar mom and pop shops. Tradition becomes progressive in this mash-up of culinary cuisines, with drinks provided by Asahi Beer and Suntory Whisky (for even more LUCKYRICE, check out their EPIC-urean Asian Feast hosted by BD Wong at Capitale on October 14).<\/p>\n

Turning the spotlight to sake, returning for its 12th annual celebration in New York City is The Joy of Sake. The world\u2019s largest sake tasting event outside of Japan comes to Metropolitan Pavilion in Chelsea on September 27, featuring a record 400 premium labels from every part of Japan and sake appetizers from 16 of New York\u2019s finest restaurants, including Momofuku, Sakagura and SushiSamba.<\/p>\n

While current statistics show that sake is losing ground to beer in Japan, it continues to make inroads in the U.S., especially among drink-savvy New Yorkers.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the last 10 years the amount of sake imported into New York has doubled as more and more people discover how good the premium labels can be,\u201d says event organizer Chris Pearce. \u201cThe Joy of Sake is a celebration of the pleasures of the sake cup\u2014and it\u2019s also one of the best annual food and beverage events in New York.\u201d<\/p>\n
