_12:12 pm_[allmediany]	Mark the Date -- Fashion Night Out It’s the stuff of New York dreams – to have 5th Avenue open all night long, free-flowing booze, free merchandise, and celebrities serving your every whim. And what was before only a layman’s fantasy is now a reality thanks to the Devil in Prada herself, Vogue editor Anna Wintour. Fashion’s Night Out, Wintour’s pet project, finally came to fruition last September in a glamorous explosion of boozy fun, with the goal of stimulating the fashion economy. And on the heels of the original’s success, on September 10th Fashion’s Night Out’s second incarnation shows no signs of slowing down the high-rolling fun.A new and improved website accompanies the second annual FNO, making it easier than ever to plan your dream evening. Complete with a drag-and-drop map, where you can choose your favorite events and place them on your own personalized map of the evening. The best new improvement from last year, however, is the ability to search through the over 1000 listings for things like “free gift,” “refreshment,” or “celebrity” – they certainly know what New Yorkers are after. Read more for the complete list of the events and celebrity sightseeing tips. (Comment on this)
_12:01 pm_[allmediany]	Food Truck Festival in NYC In recent years, food trucks have become popular with consumers and cooks alike. They’re cheaper to open and operate than a regular restaurant, while being cheaper and more convenient for consumers. The rise in gourmet food trucks in New York City, and across the nation, means that people can sample different types of cuisines during their lunch hour without spending the time or money at a traditional restaurant. The annual Food Truck Festival celebrates this concept by taking some of New York’s best food trucks and bringing them all to one place—this year, the location is Governor’s Island. Just take the free ferry from Battery Park in downtown Manhattan; the festival is located on Colonel’s Row.Read more for the list of vendors and highlights of the festival. (Comment on this)
