Bucks Food Calendar: December 27, 2013

All is pretty quiet this week. Even the roads are empty. It’s the middle of winter and we are heading towards 2014. What will you wish for the New Year?

There will be some changes at Bucks County Taste too. We’ll start publishing our weekly food calendar on Wednesdays, as well as our weekly newsletter (sign up here). Today’s calendar will take you through Wednesday January 8. Of course, you can view our full Food Events in Bucks County calendar online any time.

If you haven’t made plans for New Year’s Eve yet, check out our post, 2013 – Going out for New Year’s Eve. Many, many restaurants in the area are offering prix fixe deals, anywhere from $29.95 per person up to $99 per person (the latter includes a big dance party). So if you want a quiet meal at a good restaurant or a New Year’s bash, it’s all here.

Flint Hill Farm & Education Center in Coopersburg (just north of Quakertown) is hosting their First Annual Wine and Cheese Tasting this Saturday, December 28, to raise money for their educational programs. The farm raises goats, cows and chickens, and makes some pretty great goat and cow cheeses (they are at the Wrightstown Farmers’ Market and Doylestown Farmers’ Market in season). The farm is now a certified raw milk dairy.  The goats and cows live on pasture and eat fresh grass most of the year, supplemented with hay and grain in the winter. No pesticides, herbicides, hormones or antibiotics are used. The event will include cheese sampling, wine tasting from Unami Ridge Winery and hors d’oeuvres prepared by chef and educator Daniel Lieber. Tickets can be purchased in advance through email- info@flinthill-farm.org or by calling 610.838.2928.

Save the date for chef demo by Max Hansen. The Bucks County Foodshed Alliance will hold their first monthly meeting of the year on Wednesday, January 8. Hosted by the Standard Club in Doylestown, it will feature a chef demo by Max Hansen of Max Hansen Caterers and the Carversville General Store, a potluck and BCFA’s annual meeting, reviewing the past year, goals for 2014 and electing board members.

Also on the horizon is the popular Evening in a Colonial Kitchen at the Cock n’Bull in Peddler’s Village. This series begins on January 6 and continues each Monday evening through the end of March. Featured on The Food Network’s “Best Of,” the event includes a four-course, 18th-century style dinner while you chat with historical characters from the 18th and 19th centuries like Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and Susan B. Anthony. You’ll also have the opportunity to observe and ask questions of food historians as they prepare dishes over a roaring fire. Period musical entertainment will be provided by Marianne and Tom Tucker. The evenings are $24 for adults and $14 for children 10 and under. For a full list of historical characters and when they will be appearing, click here. Reservations are recommended. Call 215.794.4000.
