2013 Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival

Oct. 17-20, 2013

Chef de Cuisine Deuki Hong and the Korean Food Foundation presented Korean fermented cuisine at the Grand Tasting event of the 2013 New York City Wine & Food Festival. The Korean-American chef prepared a Kimchi Dubu dish to the 11,000 Grand Tasting attendants of Grand Tasting over the three day of the event. Despite the common perception of Kimchi as a side dish or a form of salad in Western society, Chef Hong introduced his Kimchi offerings as beyond just appetizer.
