Fashion week is coming, and Astoria is taking part! Ovelia (34-01 30th Ave) is celebrating fashion week with their 2nd Annual Fashion Forum, featuring local jewelry, leather, and textile artists. Henna tattoos will be available, too! Festivities start at 8 p.m. on Sunday the 13th. On the Thursday prior, KrisTees (24-01 23rd Avenue) launches more fashion fun during their Fashion's Night Out celebration.
SITE (35-11 34th Ave) hails the back-to-school season with a bunch of new products (the puppets are particularly cute). Stop by and check out what they have to offer! Inside Astoria (37-20 Ditmars) is another place for fun home goods, too.
Elections are coming up! I hope you've registered to vote. On Saturday at 2 p.m., Allison Lichter (Culture Editor, WNYC/WNYC.org) will moderate a City Council District 26 (LIC, Sunnyside, Woodside) candidates' forum focused on issues related to the arts and cultural community, at the Chocolate Factory (5-49 49th Avenue). Democrats (Jimmy Van Bramer, Brent O'Leary, Deirdre Feerick) and Republican (Angelo Maragos) candidates will be present. Space is limited. Please rsvp to chris@chocolatefactorytheater.org.
The other day I stopped by the San Antonio Bakery #2 (36-20 Astoria Blvd South) to have a Chilean hot dog (AKA completa). Let me tell you - it was even better than I remembered! So delicious and highly recommended. Make sure you eat it with the accompanying pebre.

Braved the rain to check out the Chilean hot dog at the San Antonio Bakery. It was amazing!! Never would've given this place a second glance if you hadn't reviewed it... thanks! :)
