Hanukkah is coming right up, from sundown December 16th through sundown the 24th. Here are some ways to celebrate the festival of light in style.
~BLUESTEM BRASSERIE~ will be hosting a special Hannukah pop-up with Lori Baker and Jeff Banker of the recently shuttered Baker & Banker on Wednesday December 17th. The five-course dinner offer their interpretations of Hanukkah classics, including stuffed matzo ball soup, smoked sturgeon with latkes, and braised brisket with kasha varnishkes. And don’t forget the sufganiyot for dessert! The dinner is $75 per person, and seatings will be at 5:30pm and 8:30pm. Beverages will be available for purchase in addition to ticket cost.
For a festive evening, check out the special Hanukkah menu at BURRITT ROOM.
