From Crab Cakes to Dumplings: What to Feast on at Dine Around Downtown
May 26, 2026
The Dine Around Downtown community food festival hits the neighborhood on June 4, bringing a record 54 local restaurants to Fosun Plaza at 28 Liberty St. Each restaurant will offer a few menu items ranging from $5 to $10, with tantalizing options like lamb chops, dim sum, crab cakes and more.
As a reminder, Dine Around takes place on the plaza from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and is totally free to attend. Rocco DiSpirito will once again be on hand to host and sign books, and attendees will have the opportunity to score merch and cool prizes.
