$10 Meals From 10 Restaurants: Lunch Box Is Coming to Fosun Plaza

Not that lunchtime ever gets stale in Lower Manhattan, but it’s just about time to get extra-hungry for the slate of restaurants headed to 28 Liberty’s Fosun Plaza to serve up some delicious bites.

On Thursday, October 13, the Downtown Alliance’s team that brought you Dine Around Downtown is hosting Lunch Box. From 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., the pop-up food fair will convene 10 local restaurants, all of which have opened in Lower Manhattan within the past year, to offer $10 boxed lunches (one main dish, two sides).
