ShopRite to showcase packaged entrees at NYC food festival

As part of its sponsorship of The Grand Tasting at the Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival Oct. 17-18, ShopRite plans to sample original recipes made with ingredients and special edition products from its stores.

The focus will be on the retailer’s packaged ShopRite Kitchen entrees, both on their own and as part of other dishes.

Members of ShopRite’s Potluck blogger panel will also share recipes and cooking tips at the event.

Price Plus Club Card members will receive a 10% discount on Grand Tasting tickets, which cost $185 per day.

The Grand Tasting also will feature demonstrations from Food Network and Cooking Channel chefs like Giada de Laurentiis, Emeril Lagasse and Rachael Ray, as well as additional food and wine samples.

This is the eighth time ShopRite has sponsored this event.
