1. Come down to the library this afternoon for a slushie! They look pretty darn good. Then pop in to check out Lunch Hour NYC. Your boss won’t even know you’re gone.

    Our trucks will be leaving us after Labor Day, so we had to pop over to the Library today for this new treat! Kelvin Slush is at the Library on the corner of 40th and 5th Ave. today until 7 p.m. and next Wednesday from 4-7 p.m.

    If these look as meltwatering to you as they did to us, check out all the ways you can mix their flavors. For reference, the front two are green and black tea slush mixed with raspberry (left) and strawberry fruit purée. The red straw is sitting in their Arnold Palmer special (tea and citrus slush, mixed with pineapple or white peach), and the blue straw is another green and black tea, but with passion fruit. (Of course, I was the only one who got something different.)

  2. Dessert Trucks at the Library

    You only have a few more weeks to take advantage of the food trucks parked on Fifth and 40th outside of the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building. We’re happy to share that dessert trucks are joining in the fun - here’s the full schedule for the rest of August. (Though the lunch trucks will soon be gone, don’t worry, you have plenty of time to see Lunch Hour NYC - the show is on ‘til February.)
