There are plenty of Halloween parties going on in the area to feed your inner party animal. But to feed your actual belly, here are four local restaurants offering specialty, themed dinners this Saturday.
Halloween is near, and droves of costumed-kids will be hitting the streets Saturday on the hunt for candy. Fun, yes. But we adults need a little more than candy corn to make our tummies happy. If you’re looking for a festive place to dine after the trick-or-treating wraps up, here are 4 local restaurants offering Halloween-themed dinner specials:
PEPE E SALE, Stuart
Head to downtown Stuart for Pepe e Sale’s Halloween Dinner. Their special Autumn menu offers is built around fall's best ingredients—mushrooms, brandy, and slow-cooked sauces. Carpaccio di manzo, risotto ai funghi, an 8-oz. filet in a green peppercorn sauce (served with asparagus), and a smooth bottle of wine from the cellar—in a cozy, candlelit space. Sounds about right. Available 4:30-9:30 p.m. RESERVE A TABLE HERE.
CAFE L’EUROPE, Palm Beach
With Halloween falling on a Saturday this year, there’s not reason not to keep the party going after dinner. Your destination: The Haunted Café Pop-Up at Cafe L’Europe. The French bistro bar in Palm Beach is hosting an evening of dinner, cocktails, costumes, and dancing that is sure to be a wicked good time. Your $195 ticket includes a three-course dinner and entry to the after-party (party starts at 9 p.m.). Have dinner, then stay and dance to the music of a live DJ. There’s a costume contest happening, so dress to impress. If you want to skip dinner, the after-party admission only is $65. PURCHASE TICKETS HERE.
