CHELSEA ? René Redzepi of Noma was in town yesterday for the New Yorker Festival. On the dangers of foraging he said: "Of course you don't just eat it without knowing. I'm not encouraging that, because you can actually die. I've done that myself: I've choked, and I've had on-the-spot violent diarrhea. Anything but dying basically." Eater National has the round up of the event's highlights. [Eater National]
