Momo Crawl Announcement – Sun, May 19th

Local madman proposes food crawl. /// *Queens People! * * Momo Crawl on Sunday, May 19th. 1:30pm. * *This must be done. * With the opening of Friends Cafe last week,* there are now 19places serving momos in the Little India vicinity of Jackson Heights. * These Himalayan dumplings quietly have become the most popular dish in Queens. To celebrate this influx of Himalayans to the area, I am organizing my 2nd Momo Crawl. This population of Tibetans, Nepalese, and the surrounding cultures have had such a positive effect on our area, I want to be strong in welcoming new immigrants to New York City. These entrepreneurs of our area, *these locals* who have the courage not to open up a Subway, *need our support. *That’s what this is about. Also, *expression*. Last year we kept it to 30 people because of space limitations, but this year we have use of the *Jackson Heights Diversity Plaza* and are* now aiming for MASSIVE – *This crawl is expected to have 100-125 attendees. *Meeting place:* Jackson Heights Plaza (37th Rd between 74th Street and Broadway, or 7301 37th Rd, Jackson Heights, Queens) At the meeting point, *attendees will be given a map* of the area in exchange for *2 bills of any denomination* they choose. These maps will be * stamped* at each location, and will assist us to *pick a winner *at the end of the crawl. The* winner will be presented with a giant momo trophy*, which you should look for displayed somewhere on 37th Road by the end of next week. (see progress of momo trophy in the pictures linked). * * *It’s a dream come true. * Query me any Questions, I hope you can join us, Jeff Orlick and in case you didn’t know, *I am the:* Creator and organizer of the Roosevelt Avenue Midnight Street Food Tour, Tastes of the World Tour , Real Pizza of New York app, Little India Insider app (defunct), Roosevelt Avenue Midnight Taco Crawl, The Ambassador Program (you will hear more about this in June), and Trick or Eat, among other events.
