Thousands of foodies dressed in all white descended on Nelson A. Rockefeller Park in Manhattan for New York’s fourth annual Diner en Blanc.
The diners either packed their own bags — from sushi to Chipotle burrito bowls — or ordered from the menu of celebrity chef Todd English for the annual food and cultural event in Battery Park City.
Menu options included cavatelli, herb roasted chicken breast, and antipasti, with the Korean Skirt Steak being this year’s favorite, according to English.
“It’s still America, we like our meat,” he said.
The chef said there’s no better feeling than bringing the community together over good food.
“It’s pretty amazing. I love the sense of bringing people together over food and wine,” he said. “That’s the coolest thing. This is like a vacation for everyone. We all lead such stressful lives, this is like a time-out.”
Foodies were raving about the event and yummy eats.
“It’s all about the atmosphere and the people and how everyone comes together,” said Kim Lancer, 36. “The music is great, the food is great, the views are great.”
