Queens Together, a non-profit dedicated to combating food insecurity, hosted its third annual International Food Expo at the New York Hall of Science on Thursday night. The event raised crucial funds to provide meals for those in need during the holiday season.
Nearly 40 Queens-based restaurants and bars, representing more than 25 nationalities, participated in the expo, held at 47-01 111th St. in Corona. Around 400 attendees sampled a diverse array of dishes from some of the borough’s finest eateries, showcasing the global flavors that make Queens a culinary destination.
