This Sunday will be the start of a new tradition at A Toute Heure that takes equal parts from the history of the restaurant as well as the heritage of the chef and owners – Sunday Supper! Now that brunch is every Sunday we thought it would be appropriate to start opening up for dinner the last Sunday of the month. This month the theme will be a Polenta Party! This is a traditional dinner party originating in Northern Italy where everyone gets together and feasts on polenta and braised meats (though you’ll be just fine if you’re a vegetarian). Everyone will sit down at 6:30 pm and the three-course meal will begin. Bring a nice bottle of red wine! We thought it was also appropriate to collaborate with our friends Nick and Kim of Fat, Drunk and Fancy for this one – so expect to see their beautiful faces! Can’t wait for this!
Reservations are strongly encouraged as we are only a 12 table restaurant. Call us at (908)-276-6600 or make a reservation by clicking the “book now” button on the top right of our page!
Share your favorite poem with friends! Participants recite a poem from memory in front of the group. Pizza will be served, and all participants will receive a book of poetry. Registration is required.
This is a free donation based event:
