Well, it’s official folks-we are in the winter doldrums. But so what? I mean, with the snow and sleet coming this weekend, what better excuse is there to stay indoors, eat, drink, and be merry? And of course, we always list your options:

Tonight, Haddon Heights wraps up its Taste of the Town at participating restaurants (3 courses for $25).

Saturday has the Winter Craft Beer Fest at the High Street Grill  in Mount Holly, so there’s your drinking taken care of. There’s the Slow Food South Jersey Shore Winter Fest at The Washington Inn  in Cape May, for your eating pleasure.

 

…Or you can stay inside and cook. Here’s your cooking class schedule for the week:

Tonight: Movie Night Munchies; for Teens and Tweens at Kitchen Kapers  in Moorestown; Winter Bistro Classics at Sur La Table in Marlton.

Blogging Out Hunger

The Third Annual Food Bank of South Jersey Mac Off was another stellar success-and, yes, that adorable little imp enjoying her share in the article belongs to us.

 

And in the news this week…

We say “yahoo!” to NJ wineries being allowed direct shipping!

The Millville Kiwanis are sponsoring the 4-H Favorite Food Show, which actually includes a table setting contest.

About John Howard-Fusco

John Howard-Fusco started eating at a very young age, and hasn't stopped since. In between bites he managed to: finish high school in Willingboro (his hometown), graduate from Stern School of Business at NYU, work in financial services for 15 years, get married and have two beautiful children. Suddenly, it dawned on him that maybe he could write about all this eating business. And so he did, and so he does.
