Bucks Food Calendar: January 25, 2016

Well, that was certainly a blizzard. Now that we’ve shoveled out our cars and driveways, we can get back to enjoying some great food events this week. Sip on wine, eat some pizza, and pray to the snow Gods that this doesn’t happen again any time soon.

On Tuesday, January 26, join in The After Party at Havana’s in New Hope. The After Party is a new event for the Lambertville/New Hope Winter Fest. It will start at 9 pm, after the Revolutionary Pub Crawl (which is sold out). Tickets to The After Party are $20 and can be purchased here. Havana’s is located on South Main Street in New Hope.

On Wednesday, January 27 from 6 – 11 pm at Zoubi’s Restaurant in New Hope, they will be celebrating “Mardi Gras” in January.  Each year, they celebrate having fun and enjoying the company of friends, along with great food and drinks. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door, and you can buy them online here. Also part of the Winter Festival is the popular The Taste of Winter Fest on Thursday, January 28 from 7 – 9 pm. The delicious event is at the Inn at Lambertville Station in the Riverside Ballroom, and spotlights the culinary delights that the river towns have to offer. Enjoy featured tastings from wineries to breweries. There will be samplings from various restaurants. Some of the culinary spotlights include Unionville Vineyards, Hotel du Village, and Owow Creamery. Tickets are $45 and can be reserved here.

I always say, anything that’s free is definitely for me! To celebrate their one year anniversary, Liberty Hall Pizza in Lambertville, NJ will be open tonight, Monday, January 25 from 6 – 8 pm. In honor of the milestone, owners Chris Bryan and Danny Popkin will be handing out complimentary Margherita pizza and a tumbler of Victory draught root beer to the first 200 guests who show up. The special is dine-in and no substitutions. The regular menu will not be available as the restaurant is normally not open on Monday.

Quakertown Alive! is presenting an Instagram contest through January and until February 22, and it’s a great excuse to go out to your favorite restaurant and start snapping and hashtagging. The contest is to show support for shopping small and local, and for showcasing your local Quakertown photography. Quakertown Alive! wants you to take a picture your favorite place to eat and drink, or shop in Quakertown for this contest.

On Thursday, January 28, in Newtown, transport back to a time where Frank Sinatra performed to admiring guests, whilst sipping wine and eating great food. That can happen right now in 2016, starting at 7 pm at La Stalla Restaurant. Come to their 5-course wine pairing Frank Sinatra Wine Dinner. Reservations are required. Tickets are $75 per person with tax and gratuity. All of your Frank Sinatra favorites will play! A portion of all proceeds will be going to Matt’s Mission for ALS.

Thursday, February 11, 2016: Caffé Galleria in Lambertville, known for their diverse, Mediterranean-inspired menu, including great vegetarian and vegan options, will host this intimate event. Buy tickets now because there are only a few left!

Saturday, February 27, 2016: French Pop-Up Dinner at the Hotel du Village in New Hope (just north of town). Classic French food, champagne and wine pairings and live French Gypsy Swing music. This is going to be a blast!

Hotel du Village reopened last year as an event venue under new ownership. They have beautifully restored the Hotel, including the inn. In honor of Hotel du Village’s culinary history, Executive Chef Hunter Stagg has created a classic French menu with many dishes from the former restaurant’s menu. Tickets are $95 pp, which includes tax and tip. Make it even more fun and stay the night at the Inn (special rate of $169/night). Registration will open later this week.

And in March 2016, Spanish Night at Hamilton’s Grill Room. Details to come.
