As we move into real winter, warmth seems to be the theme of so many food events in Bucks County, with a little “ice” thrown in for good measure.
This Saturday evening is the official beginning of the Lambertville-New Hope Winter Festival. While most of the festival’s events will take place January 25 – January 29, the popular Fire and Ice Ball kicks it all off this Saturday, January 14. The event, presented by the New Hope Chamber of Commerce, features food and drink from local restaurants, live entertainment, dancing, ice sculptures, and people watching. (Everyone is encouraged to dress their best!) It’s all happening at the New Hope Arts Center, 2 Stockton Avenue in New Hope, beginning at 8 pm. $15 in advance, $20 at the door.
And what’s more warming than bourbon? The Yardley Inn presents their annual whiskey dinner on Sunday, January 15, with bourbon as the guest of honor this year. The five course meal, with each course paired with a different bourbon, is $95 per person – which is a steal for the whiskey alone! Here’s a taste of the menu. Burgoo over soft white grits with a Hudson 4 yr. Baby Bourbon; Cornmeal crusted catfish, cornbread and greens with Four Roses Single Barrel; and Fried chicken, honey biscuit, field peas, okra with Sazerac Rye 6yr. To learn more, see their website.
If bourbon’s not your spirit of choice, there are plenty of wine tastings going on this weekend. See the calendar below for details. Or drop in on one of the two firehouse breakfasts this Sunday- one in Riegelsville and one in Perkasie.
