March 11: Raw Cocktail Party at Organic Academics
At first we were skeptical about the raw food thing, but then we saw it firsthand and were quite impressed. Join Matthew Kenny's team and learn how to make everything you need for a raw cocktail party -- dips, drinks, and a full spread for your guests. $65, call (718) 722-7541 or email organicacademics@theplantindumbo.com for reservations.

March 11: 7th Annual South Street Seaport Irish Stroll
Celebrate St. Patrick's Day a little early and beat the crowds while doing something good for City Harvest. For $10 with 2 cans of food (and $15 without), you can stroll between the 13 participating bars from 1-9 pm while enjoying $2-3 beers, food specials and live entertainment. Register from 1-6 pm at Pier 17 at the Seaport. Advance tickets available online.
