The Cookery (Dobbs Ferry) and Captain Lawrence Brewing Company (Elmsford) will join forces in Elmsford on Friday, Feb. 8 to present “A Lover’s Quarrel (a Pre-Valentine’s Day Soiree).”

The co-hosts promise that this event will be “a great night of digestion, liberation and flirtation” and “a fun evening for singles and couples” not willing to wait a week to celebrate Valentine's Day. The CLBC wedding band, “Monogamy’s Dilemma,” will entertain.

The dishes to be prepared by Chef David DiBari’s kitchen staff include bar-style favorites such as:

  • Wood roasted bone marrow with balsamic onions and grilled Tuscan bread
  • Crispy duck tongue with fennel salt
  • Blood red beet arancini with goat cheese
  • Duck liver parfait with grilled Tuscan bread and Amaretto gelée
  • Cookery house pickles: Kirby’s, baby beets, cauliflower, radish and Brussels sprouts
  • Raw black kale salad with boiled eggs, onions and quince vinegar
  • Crostino with fresh ricotta, truffle honey and thyme
  • Assorted cheeses with wood baked bread and truffle honey

A carving station will offer confit of veal breast and baby back ribs. A "slop" station will provide braised pork cheeks with apple mustard and braised ox tail.
