Spring? Well, maybe not. But we certainly got a taste of springtime this weekend. Although the nice weather may not last, it was fun seeing everyone shed some layers and bask in the sun.
Restaurants may not be putting out their deck furniture just yet so enjoy some of these new menus and specials in Bucks County, like tasty Irish breakfast dishes, family style tacos, or pizza for a good cause.
And if none of these tease your palate, check out our full Bucks food calendar here.
Bucks County Food calendar: Irish menu specials. March is just around the corner, and with it comes St. Paddy’s Day, a holiday known for serving up traditional Irish dishes paired with rich beers like Guinness. So, why not kick off the holiday early with Karlton Cafe’s latest Irish menus specials?
While you are there, try out the Reuben omelette, chocolate stout bread french toast, Irish Banger roll-ups, or Shamrock cakes. Stay for their lunch and try the blood orange soaked wild salmon salad or the Reuben Panini. You can reserve a spot by calling 215.538.8353 or head over to the cafe as a walk-in guest.
Mama’s new empanadas and dips. If you love mushrooms, you’ll be thrilled to know that Empanada Mama’s savory mushroom empanada (one of my favorites) is back! Also, check out their new pork salsa verde empanada with pickled red onions and mozzarella. These empanadas pair perfectly with Mama’s creamy avocado dip. Better grab some before they’re all sold out!
