Thursday Sips & Nibbles

I'm back again with a new edition of Sips & Nibbles, my regular column where I highlight some interesting, upcoming food and drink events. I hope everyone dines out safely, tips well and are nice to their servers.
******************************************************
1) For April, Kane’s Donuts is bringing the flavors of spring to New England with fresh, local ingredients like blueberries from Maine and chocolate from Somerville, MA-based Taza Chocolate. The April flavors of the month include Honey Blueberry Pie, Reese’s Cup, and Marble Cruller.

The Honey Blueberry Pie Donut is a light and airy yeast dough, bursting with blueberry pie filling, and doused with Kane’s Signature Honey Glaze. The Reese's Cup Donut is a yeast style donut, frosted with a homemade chocolate frosting made with Somerville's Taza Chocolate, topped with Teddie Peanut Butter, a dollop of Kane’s fluffy whoopie pie filling and a piece of a Reese's Cup. The Marble Cruller is a cake style donut layered with Kane’s old-fashioned dough and chocolate dough twisted to form a cruller then dipped in their Signature Honey Glaze.

2) Chef/Owner Will Gilson, Wine Director David Danforth, and the rest of the Puritan & Co. team invite guests to join them for a fun 90's-inspired throwback dinner, the "We Love the 90's," on Thursday, April 28th at 6pm. Paired with six courses of 90's-inspired cuisine, Wine Director David Danforth has curated a rare selection of 90's wines that span the decade.
