Most eat-around events in New York feature exclusively white tablecloth, fancy-pants restaurants. Those affairs are fine and dandy, but they don't really bring serious eaters much in the way of different or delicious ethnic fare, which is a shame given how much terrific ethnic food there is in Gotham.

Want to drink bottomless cups of unusual sakes and eat copious amounts of food from serious Japanese restaurants like Nobu, Megu, and wd-50 (I know it's not Japanese, but it's good)? You might want to check out the eat-and-drink fest that is the Joy of Sake next Thursday night (September 27) at the Puck Building. I've never been to this event, but it sounds pretty cool, so I think I am going to check it out. Tickets are $75 each ($90 at the door), but we've snagged a couple of ducats to give away on Ed Levine's New York Eats.
To enter, just leave a comment telling us about your favorite place to drink sake in New York. You have until Tuesday night to comment. The usual Serious Eats contest rules apply.
