February is creeping in, and that means Super Bowl Sunday (Go Eagles!!), Valentine’s Day, and excuses to eat lots and lots of chocolates (the trick is to buy candy the day after V-day!).
Say farewell to January and hello to February — here’s hoping for less bitterly cold days! Here’s what’s on our radar this week…
Third Annual Kosher Cook-Off
This Monday, stop by Al Fresco’s at The Shoppes at Flemington, NJ for a kosher cook-off, featuring Rachel Reuben (a Chopped champion) and an award winning NJ chef. It’s hosted by Naomi Nachman from TheAussieGourmet.com. Event starts at 6:30 pm and includes cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and gourmet stations. It’s $36, see here for more information.
Valentine’s Day B&B Giveaway
Enter the Valentine’s Day giveaway from Hershberger Heritage Farm and you might win a two night stay for two guests in their farm’s newly renovated custom AirBnB for February 13 and 14.
What started out as an abandoned pool house on the farm has now turned into something much more. Something of usefulness with a tad of beauty and charm fit for anyone who seeks a private stay on a thriving organic farm in Bucks County, PA. Winner will be announced on Friday, February 2 so don’t delay. Enter to win here!
Tacos and Movie Night
Time to fill up on tacos, because this week is the Comfortfood & Kitchenette’s comfort food and a classic movie night. For $25 per person (plus gratuity and tax) you can enjoy endless tacos with a great flick. So, head over to Morrisville at 7 pm on Tuesday evening for some tacos served family style with chips, homemade salsas, pickled veggies.
They’re also offering up a Super Bowl menu this year, see here for more information.
Bet you’re thinking about Super Bowl food now…we’ll have an updated guide for BBQ and Super Bowl treats later this week — courtesy of Bucks County Taste!
Why shopping local is the way to go
Shopping small and supporting the businesses in your community not only benefits you, it benefits the local economy and the people that live in your area.
As a site that cares so much about the restaurants, wineries, farms and other small businesses in the area, we want to provide you with the best resources to make smart decisions. So here’s some #MondayMotivation for you — learn why shopping local is the way to go:
- Here are our favorite guides for finding the best of Bucks County: BYOBs, Beer, Local Cheese makers, Farm Markets and more. Use our food guides and maps to plan your next food excursion.
- How do you support local businesses and their fun, foodie events, when you don’t know where to begin? Every Monday and Thursday we release guides with several food events and activities, dinners and drinks, in your area. Check out our tidbits and other things you gotta do here. Sign up for our email list and get local food in your inbox twice a week. Yum.
