Dirt Candy is throwing a week-long sweet 16 celebration
Back in 2008, Amanda Cohen banked on the power of plant-forward cuisine with the opening of Dirt Candy. Clearly, she was on to something, receiving nods from the James Beard Awards and her restaurant earned a Michelin star, becoming only one of two vegetarian restaurants in NYC to achieve the honor. Celebrating its 16th year in service, the restaurant is throwing a sweet 16 bash.
