On March 1st La Cafette will be hosting a festive Mardi Gras soirée in celebration of their first anniversary in Williamsburg. They’ll channel the energy of New Orleans with live jazz music, decor and, of course, cajun-inspired bites, cocktails, and lots of champagne.
The eatery’s co-chefs Aubry and Perrot will serve a special menu of small plates throughout the night, including oysters on the half shell ($1), chicken cajun sliders ($7), beef gumbo ($7), cajun croquettes de mahi-mahi ($7) and apple beignets ($5). Guests will wash everything down with sazeracs and bubbly. The party will on from 7pm until late – guests should bring their dancing shoes and appetites! Walk-ins are welcome. Several of the special dishes will also remain on the menu for Mardi Gras the following week.
