Cue the bagpipes! On Thursday, January 25, for the ninth year, The CascadeRoom will host a lively and delicious celebration in honour of Scottish poet Robert Burns. The evening will feature bagpipes, whisky, haggis and other delicacies from the kitchen, including decadent deep-fried Mars Bars.
Doors open at 4 pm on January 25. This year, the Burns’ Night celebration will include TWO ‘Piping of the Haggis’ events, at 5:30 pm and 8 pm, which will see local bagpiper Matt Dolan pipe in the haggis, with Dougie Stewart addressing the haggis. A fiddle performance from Colourstrings Conservatory of Music, along with music from Crash World, will round out the entertainment.
Chef Tim Evans has crafted a special three-course dinner menu for the party: Starter – Cock-a-Leekie Soup; Main – Traditional Haggis with ‘Neeps an’ Tatties; and for dessert — a Deep Fried Mars Bar with gelato. The menu is priced at $35 (a la carte available as well).
From the bar: Celtic Red Ale cask from Main Street Brewing, along with drink features and whisky cocktails from Glenlivet and Ballantine’s.
Guests are welcome on a first come, first served basis. For more information, http://www.thecascadecompany.com/robbie-burns-night-at-the-cascade-room-2018/
