Thai SELECT Festival Brings Authentic Cuisine & Culture to NYC's 28 Liberty

Free Thai SELECT festival at 28 Liberty features 14 certified restaurants, cultural performances & cooking demos on Sept 18, 2025. Experience authentic Thai cuisine.

This festival matters because it provides New Yorkers and visitors with direct access to certified authentic Thai cuisine, which is often diluted or westernized in typical restaurant settings. The Thai SELECT certification ensures that dishes maintain traditional preparation methods and ingredients, preserving cultural authenticity while supporting local businesses that adhere to these standards. For food enthusiasts, this represents a rare opportunity to experience genuine Thai flavors without traveling abroad, while also learning about Thailand's rich cultural heritage through performances and interactive experiences. The event's free admission makes it accessible to diverse communities, promoting cultural exchange and culinary education in one of the world's most diverse cities.
