What’s On the Menu for Fashion’s Night Out? 6 Events to Whet Your Appetite

If you’re looking to meet celebs, or just out for a low key event, with over 1300 events listed, darting from shop to shop tonight for Fashion’s Night Out can get to be exhausting. If you’re planning to work up an appetite shopping tonight, we’ve managed to get a few details about what’s on the menu at various locations.

Canard Inc., a New York catering firm shared some of the tasty treats they’ll be preparing, and we’ve also picked out a few of the tastiest sounding events where – despite the seeming irony – fashion meets food.

Levi’s

Canard is catering a “workman themed event with modern interpretations of classic dishes.” Stop by for

• mac-n-cheese – macaroni and cheese square with truffle oil
• wings – deconstructed chicken wings with buffalo sauce, roquefort dip and celery stick skewer
• cheeseburgers – bite-sized turkey cheeseburgers on poppy seed brioche buns with catsup and mustard

On one hand, we’d say don’t overdo it. On the other, this could be a great way to find out if the jeans you’re eyeing will hold up during holiday meals and other food indulging events.

Via Spiga

Canard will be giving the shoemaker a “sophisticated Italian” menu with

• cheesecake lollipops
• cannolis
• espressos

Judith Leiber

If you’re a true recessionista, the closest you’d normally come to Judith Leiber is probably a lucky find at Housing Works or the right resale shop. Just for this night, the minaudiere maker will be doing something just for the recessionistas, courtesy of Canard.

• “recessionista” cocktail – Stoli vodka, cranberry, fresh lime, 7-up
• upscale pigs-in-a-blanket, skewered with mustard dollop
• mini NY-style cheesecake with black wafer crust

Crumbs Bake Shop

It won’t be free, but Crumbs – one of the best cupcake makers in New York (we’re going on personal taste tests here) will be selling a special Fashion’s Night Out cupcake with a portion of sales benefiting the New York AIDS fund. No details on what’s in the cupcake, but we’re betting  that it will be worth trying.

Dylan’s Candy Bar

Dylan’s Candy Bar and Savannah College of Art and Design have teamed up for a sugary sweet shopping evening with a Marshmallow Gun battle and  candy cocktails, compliments of Ed Hardy Vodka. Candy couture dresses designed by students of the Savannah College of Art and Design will be displayed if you need a little Project Runway-esque inspiration for your candy shopping.

Food Truck Faceoff at Lord & Taylor

Starting at 6pm, Cupcakestop.com, Street Sweets, Treats Truck and Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream will park their trucks and set up shop at various spots around the store.
