A fun day was had by all!

   

On November 7, 2015, Wagner College students and faculty hosted 

"A Taste of Post Richmond"

The event was held to promote restaurants located in 

Port Richmond, Staten Island.

Customers sampled gyros, chicken cordon blue, penne with vodka sauce, chicken or pork with rice & peas, tamales, jerk chicken and rice, and of course pizza. The following six restaurants participated in the event

Alibaba Mediterranean Grill

Bermay Luncheonette

Goody's Spanish Restaurant

Los Potrillos Taqueria Restaurant

The event was the brainstorm of the Wagner College/Port Richmond Partnership to promote businesses in the area. 

Dr. Richard LaRocca spearheaded the idea to have a food festival at a Seahawks game and
Wagner College students served customers throughout the day.

Below are a few snapshots of the day.,..
