Foodie Nirvana At NYC's Pier 94
A Tasting Event With Incomparable Style


NEW YORK, NY. June 27, 2008 - Starfish Junction Productions, producers of the
annual Coffee And Tea Festival NYC announced today that it would be back in town
this fall for a very special appearance at TastingsNYC - one of New York City's
largest culinary events. TastingsNYC, a production from the producers of
Cook.Eat.Drink.Live. will spotlight the culinary talent of celebrity chefs and top
restaurateurs and provide attendees with abundant opportunities to sample specialty
food and beverages. The event will take place November 7-9, 2008 at Pier 94 in New
York City. WCBS, the event's media sponsor, will use all TV, radio, and online
outlets for promotion.

The Coffee And Tea Festival will join forces with TastingsNYC to deliver the
ultimate gastronomic experience for the 15,000+ expected attendees. Designed with
several impressive components, the three-day event will include an impressive lineup
of talented chefs including Jon Ashton and Ben Pollinger from Oceana and mixologists
Junior Merino and Chris Cardone. It will also include an expansive tasting area
where attendees will sample delectable delights from area restaurants and caterers,
try new food products, and sample amazing beer, wine, and spirits. Additionally,
three special pavilions will be created within the scope of the show, the Pan-Asian
Pavilion, the FineWaters Pavilion, and the Coffee And Tea Pavilion hosted by the
producers of the NYC Coffee And Tea Festival (www.CoffeeAndTeaFestival.com).

"We were thrilled and honored when we were approached by the TastingsNYC event
organizers and asked to host the Coffee And Tea Pavilion because of the success of
our annual NYC Coffee And Tea Festival," said Lynda Calimano, Coffee And Tea
Festival NYC event producer. "We'll be bringing a very select group of high quality
specialty coffee and tea companies to the TastingsNYC event. We're bringing the
crème de la crème."

TastingsNYC will also have a co-location at Pier94 with the International Chocolate
Show, and mirror the same event hours. The partnership with the Chocolate Show is an
extraordinary opportunity for TastingsNYC as New York is currently the only United
States location for the Chocolate Show. Entry into The Chocolate Show can be coupled
