Marcus Samuelsson Plans Harlem Food Festival

New York already has its share of food festivals, but hopefully there is room for one more, because Red Rooster chef Marcus Samuelsson is said to be planning a major Harlem food festival for next year.

According to the New York Post, the renowned chef has teamed up with "food festival guru" Herb Karlitz, who has launched food events in New York, Miami, Las Vegas, and California. The specifics of the event are still under wraps, but Samuelsson and Karlitz are said to be planning a press conference this month at Red Rooster, where they will announce the new festival.

An unnamed source allegedly close to Samuelsson and Karlitz told the Post that former president Bill Clinton is expected to be a supporter of the event, which could potentially include music and art elements as well as food.

"They're said to be making an announcement on May 20," the source said. "Details are still being worked out, but they'll organize a series of events in Harlem for 2015."
