You can find the weekend in its snow fort.
You’ve now got another casual dinner spot, and it comes from the guy behind the El Floridano truck. Think local art, a big communal table and dishes like wild-boar rigatoni, catfish with grits and gnocchi with tongue and escargots. To come in the spring: an outdoor patio and lots of local beer.
Rocklands. Usually a good spot for an emergency pulled-pork sandwich. But this week, during their annual Grills Gone Wild days, you can get a little more exotic. Exotic like wild-beaver sausage, alligator Brunswick stew and blackened-snakehead tacos. They wisely eschewed the horse meat.
You see snow, you want to get out in it. If only you had ski poles, maybe a new parka, definitely a tent and a camp stove. Well, stock up for the next go-round, as Hudson Trail cleans out its inventory for spring. Also useful if you’ve become a survivalist recently.
Sometimes your dates get started late. It’s okay. Here’s another place they can end late: Cashion’s is now serving its menu of stuff like lamb ribs, rabbit-leg confit and dry-aged rib eye until midnight on weekends. Yes, they have nightcaps, too.
