For 19 consecutive years, Saratoga Springs restaurateurs have brought hot, delicious chowders to hungry, freezing souls in the dead of Winter. Chowderfest offers Winter-weary spirits an opportunity to break the Cabin Fever Mold, and get out of the house. Drive up (or down) the Northway, or perhaps visit Saratoga for the first time.
As in the 19 years before, Saratoga will again present Chowderfest: this year’s date and time are Saturday, February 3, from 11AM – 4PM. For a mere dollar per cup, Chowderheads can sample dozens of delicious, sweet, soul-warming chowders from most of Saratoga’s most renowned dining establishments. Wrap your hands and your hearts around these steaming mugs, and dive in.
Then, vote for your favorite: it’s a major point of pride for the establishments who win Chowderfest accolades every year.
After walking around Saratoga; shivering with your friends and taking notes on which chowder was best–you’ll be in need of a warm, cozy bed and hot cup of tea. A brief walk from downtown, or short drive. You may have been crowned, Queen of Chowder by your friends, for consuming the most cups–so you deserve to pamper yourself for all that hard work. (And if you’re not still stuffed in the morning, a piping hot, gourmet breakfast will await you in our dining room.
Come to us, let us heat up your tired feet and stiff fingers. Stay with us the night or weekend of February 3rd, and see just how cozy Saratoga can be. We await your reservation in advance. Call: (518) 584-6751 to reserve your room, today. Feel the warmth over the phone, the same warmth you’ll drink in when you check into our unique inn. 🙂
As we dig out from under the small hillock of snow with which Mother Nature has painted our gorgeous Saratoga, we are reminded that, yes, Virginia–it IS only January. And that means, we have at least two more months of Winter to stare down. We can’t speak for others, but we just want to hunker down in a soft bed, with a hot cup of cocoa, and wait ’til the robins sing again…
And because The Brunswick at Saratoga Bed and Breakfast is a brief walk to the Saratoga City Center and other venues that serve as respositories of joy that weekend–we can offer a hot shower, warm bed and yummy breakfast each of the mornings of the Flurry. (Let’s face it: after 12 hours of dancing–you’re going to need a shower. And your bones will say, “Ahhhhh,” after that ablution, as you sink into one of our luxurious beds.)
