[Eataly by Krieger]

FOOD FESTS — The organizers of food and music fest The Great GoogaMooga just announced more additions to the vendor lineup, including: Dinosaur BBQ, The Burger Joint, Crif Dogs, DuMont burger, Landhaus, Souvlaki GR, Craft, Little Muenster, Num Pang, Pok Pok Wing, and Seersucker. [EaterWire]

GOING GREEN — On Earth Day (April 22), all of Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich's restaurants (Babbo, Lupa, Esca, Eataly, Del Posto), will serve special environmentally-friendly dishes (locally-sourced, no-pesticides, little animal products, little packaging). The idea here is to lower the carbon footprint across the entire restaurant group. All guests that day will also receive a free packet of radish seeds that will double as tickets to the New York Botanical Garden. [EaterWire]

WEST VILLAGE — On April 24, chef Harold Dieterle will prepare a four-course meal that will include products from famed Iowa artisan meat producer La Quercia. The dinner is $70 per person; call 212-929-6868 to book a reservation. [EaterWire]
