NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – The El Coto de Rioja Paella Parade builds on its tradition of bringing together the best Metro-area chefs and their passion for the flavors of Spain.

Guests will have the opportunity to taste a trio of wines from leading Rioja winery, El Coto de Rioja, as well as discover the best Spanish cuisine Metro New York has to offer while watching local chefs as they prepare their top Paellas for the celebration. Held at the Beekman Beer Garden (formerly known as Water Taxi Beach), the scenic backdrop brings the essence of la buena vida- delicious traditional food and wine and mouth-watering (pun intended!) NYC views! Best of all, the El Coto Paella Parade gives something back, too!

A minimum of 10 percent of the proceeds will benefit, as in the past, Action Against Hunger and the Hospitality Department at New York City College of Technology, CUNY.
