Our good friends (well, let's be honest, acquaintances) at Taste of the Nation NYC have given us a promotional code that will give you, our dear readers, a discount on tickets for their benefit this Wednesday at Roseland Ballroom. Just use the code "theawl" (one word!) at checkout and you'll have a 30% discount applied to your ticket. The proceeds go to the fight against childhood hunger, which, I think we can all agree, is a fairly worthy cause. A full list of the restaurants participating and the charities helped follows.
