Taste of Asia, a tasting event celebrating New York’s AAPI communities, brought together 1,000 guests to raise more than $1.4 million in support of City Harvest and the work of Apex for Youth and Madison Square Park Conservancy. Featuring a curated selection of 40 restaurants serving Asian-inspired bites in Madison Square Park, this night honors unity through appreciation of food, culture, and nature. This event is in partnership with our Board and Food Council member Simon Kim of Michelin-starred COTE Korean Steakhouse, and benefits Apex for Youth, City Harvest, and Madison Square Park Conservancy.
