America is full of eclectic street food traditions, with unique regional dishes enjoyed across the country. This month, Decca’s underground cocktail den, The Cellar Lounge, debuts Chef Annie Pettry’s latest edition of “Beats & Eats,” showcasing her take on beloved specialties from throughout the U.S. of A. in “Street Foods of Our Nation.”
WHAT:
From 11 p.m. – 1:30 a.m. on Thursday, September 24, The Cellar Lounge’s late-night pop-up will celebrate America’s regional street foods, alongside beats of NYC Hip-Hop spun by DJ Ryan Rugger. In addition to the full bar menu, drink specials will include $2 Jell-O Shots, $2 Budweiser, and The Cellar Lounge’s infamous “Five Dolla Holla”—a shot of bourbon and a can of beer for $5.
Each Beats & Eats volume highlights street foods from a different area of the world, and bites will always be offered in the same categories: on a stick, in a bowl, between bread, and in between, in order to show similarities in global cuisine. Inspired by a blend of street fare from across the nation, Chef Annie will serve up dishes such as:
· Frito Pie: Taco in a Bag (Southwest & Midwest)
· Philly Cheese Steaks (Northeast)
· Fried Chicken on a Stick (NOLA)
· Roadside Snacks: Boiled Peanuts, Pork Rinds, Pickled Eggs, Dill Pickles (Southeast)
· “Freedom Fries” with animal sauce (West Coast)
