AlwaysHungryNY: Tribeca Film Festival Eating

April 20, 2009

This year’s Tribeca Film Festival runs from April 22nd – May 3rd. If you’re AlwaysHungry and have the opportunity to check out a flick, you’re going to want to grab a bite before or after the curtain closes. Some restaurants are offering their own festival-related promotions, like VietCafe’s 10% discount or Bread’s extended Happy Hour for festival employees and volunteers. But, the majority of restaurants are participating in American Express’ Tribeca Film Feast partnership. With a reservation and the mention of the “TFF 2009” promotional code, lucky Amex card holders will be able to capitalize on fantastic dining deals throughout the festival’s tenure in TriBeCa. We have put together the ultimate TriBeca Film Festival eating list so that you can pay more attention to the movies and let AHNY help you with the eating.
