Taste of the Nation, Brooklyn may be one of our favorite events the city has to offer. Tonight, for a fee, you can get access to rows and rows of tables filled with delicious samples from many of our favorite Brooklyn restaurants. 100% of the money from ticket sales goes to help non-profits like God's Love We Deliver, City Harvest and Just Food.

Last year we had so much fun we lingered until the clean up crew started making the rounds. Our persistence paid off when we discovered an unclaimed box of Corazon tequila. We drank well for months.

If the food and alcohol is not lure enough, the lovely Colson Whitehead, will be there signing books. In our eyes, Colson presence is enough to sweeten any event.
