Eco Appetito, Round 2
The Ferry Beach Ecology School’s now annual benefit event at Cinque Terre, Eco Appetito, is on tap for this Sunday, March 8. Amber and I very much enjoyed going last year and were looking forward to it this year as well. Unfortunately, we’ll be attending a first birthday party instead, so we’ll have to wait for next year. For those of you not otherwise occupied, we highly recommend checking out the festivities on Wharf Street. The menu highlights include:
- Premium veal, ham and pork samplings
- Artisan cheeses and breads
- Fresh fish from Browne Trading Company
- Winter Point oysters, raw and roasted
- House-made ravioli filled with organic vegetables from Laughing Stock Farm
- Arugula pesto and mushroom soup “shots”
- Seasonal vegetables from Farm Fresh Connection
And, to quench your thirst:
- Handcrafted beers from Allagash Brewing Company
- Wines provided by Aurora Provisions, Mariner Beverage, & Wicked Wines
- French Press Coffee tasting by Starbucks Coffee
If you’ve not yet experienced Chef Lee Skawinski’s fare at Cinque Terre, this event offers a reasonably economical (tickets are $35 each) way to see what all the buzz is about, and it’s tax deductible. Oh, and it benefits a great cause, too! Check out ecoappetito.com for more information and to order your tickets.
