If you’re seeing green this weekend it probably isn’t the little buds of spring but St. Patrick’s Day celebrations! There are so many parties going on at area restaurants and bars (the holiday does seem to be made for drinking and eating, no?) that I can’t even list them all. Just go to your local drinking hole and celebrate, whether you’re Irish or not.
This Sunday begins the New Hope-Lambertville Restaurant Week. Twenty-two restaurants will be participating on both sides of the river offering a prix fixe of $29.95 at fine dining restaurants and $19.95 at more casual venues. See their website for a list of participating restaurants. Coming up in April is the first Doylestown Restaurant Week, beginning on Sunday, April 14 and continuing through Saturday, April 20. Go to doylestownmenus.com for more information and to book your reservations.
Speaking of Doylestown, Doc Baker’s Farmulations will be opening their doors officially this Wednesday, March 20, in the Doylestown Inn at 18 West Street. Doc Baker’s is a juice bar and restaurant, featuring all-organic, all-natural, all-vegan, mostly raw and nutritious fare. This is not going to be the familiar smoothie bar but something much better. Check it out.
The ACME Screening Room in Lambertville is showing BREWED IN BROOKLYN all this weekend. Produced by a local video company, Delaware Valley Video, the documentary explores Brooklyn’s past as the beer brewing capital of the world. Now with the renaissance of Brooklyn there has been a return of the beer brewing industry. The film contains many first person accounts about the brewing industry both past and present specific to Brooklyn and includes rare, long forgotten footage. Following the movie on Saturday evening, there will be a Beer Tasting Party at the Columbia Fire Company in Lambertville, that includes brewers, beer tour guides and Joshua Bernstein, author of “Brewed Awakening: Behind the Beers and Brewers Leading the World’s Craft Brewing Revolution.”
If you want to support local beer and food, make your way over to the Yardley Inn on Thursday, March 21 for a River Horse Dinner, pairing the local brewery’s beers with a delightful menu created by chef Eben Copple. See their website for more information.
The Farm Fresh Film Series begins this Wednesday March 20. Sponsored by the Doylestown Food Co-Op, the Bucks County Foodshed Alliance and the County Theater, the aim of the series is to explore how what we put in our bodies impacts our health, our community, and our world. Food, Inc., by filmmaker Robert Kenner, reveals surprising – and often shocking – truths about what we eat, how it’s produced, and where we are going from here. The movie begins at 7:30 pm. See the Co-op’s website for a listing of the next films in June, September and December.
