The timing of Valentine’s Day is perfect – right in the middle of one of the coldest months of the year, smack in the middle of winter. A great opportunity to forget the cold weather and take your special person to one of the great restaurants or special events happening in the area.
Love Beer? Love Food? Then you might want to make reservations for the Valentines Dinner at Smithavens Brewing Co. Join Kevin McKenna, the Chef and owner of Hunter County Cuisine & Wine Bar for a three course beer pairing meal sure to showcase his amazing menu coupled with the freshest local ingredients.
Tickets are $60 plus tax and are available by calling 705-743-4747.
Dinner and Axe Throwing Anyone? Yes, you read that correctly. For something completely different, you can engage in what the Peterborough Axe Club refers to as, “The world’s greatest pleasures: delicious food and chucking axes!”
This one of a kind event will include a catered, sit down meal, followed by an evening of axe throwing.
The meal is mouth-watering! A Moroccan-styled menu including spiced organic chicken, spicy pork skewers with pomegranate glaze, winter vegetable tagine, traditional scented pilau and a surprise for desert.
And don’t worry! You don’t need any experience as coaches will show you how to throw your axe!
Tickets are $65 and will NOT be available at the door. You can get them at the Club at 280 Perry Street, Unit 1 in Peterborough. Call 707-768-2846 for more information.
Great Food and Jazz. If beer tasting or axe throwing is not for you, how about a lovely evening including a special Valentines dinner menu and a concert featuring the sounds of 4 Up Front.
The special event takes place at South Pond Farms, 1020 Gray Rd Pontypool, ON L0A 1K0. Call 705-277-1649 for more details.
