If you've ever dreamed about being able to sample the fare at some of New York City's best eateries all in one place, there's an event where you can actually do just that.

On Tuesday, The Village Voice threw its 6th annual Choice Eats event with over 50 restaurants hand-picked by Village Voice food critics Robert Sietsema and Tejal Rao.

This event showcases New York as a culinary mecca, but also aims to introduce foodies to some of the city's hidden gems.  And even better, a portion of ticket sales to the sold out event is going to the organization Slow Food NYC.

Click through and check out some of the best samples from this year's event and where you can get them yourself.
