FINANCIAL DISTRICT — Lunch options Downtown just got a little more diverse.
More than 50 Lower Manhattan restaurants are serving up a bevy of small plates for the annual Dine Around Downtown food festival, taking place 28 Liberty Plaza, rain or shine, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. today.
Some bites you'll find this year include lobster mac and cheese from FiDi's Stone Street Tavern, grilled lamb chops from the Seaport's New Zealand eatery Nelson Blue, and BBQ chicken wings from new TriBeCa Korean restaurant Gunbae.
There's no admission fee to the 28 Liberty Plaza (formerly known as the Chase Manhattan Plaza) festival, and plates come at about $3 to $7.
Eating at the festival also gives you a chance to win a two-night stay for two people at the W New York Downtown — post a photo of any plate you buy at the festival to Instagram, Twitter or Facebook with the hashtag #DineAroundDowntownNYC for a chance to win, organizers said.
The event, presented by the Downtown Alliance also features live jazz music from the All-Stars, the musical ensemble of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem.
