Fine-Dining Stalwart Hosts 'Apres Ski' Parties Before Next Week's Freeze

Fine-Dining Stalwart Hosts 'Apres Ski' Parties Before Next Week's Freeze

BY NOW, MOST of us are bracing for whatever Mother Nature decides to bring next week, be it snow, ice, or just a lot of bad traffic.


At Tony's, the crew is planning a little fun on Friday and Saturday nights, inspired by the potential "snow day." Sponsored by Kaviari, the "unforgettable alpine evening" includes a best-dressed contest and live music by Latin crooner Miguel Delabarca. Among the menu items to ensure guests stay cozy is what might be the best chili you've ever had ($15), hot toddies for just $5 a pop, and a blood orange "dreamsicle" baked Alaska ($45).

Each night, a group of ski-bunny-clad guests will be crowned Best Dressed Table, winning Kaviari Prestige Oscietra Caviar (1oz), a bottle of Vve Forny & Fils Blanc de Blanc 1er Cru, and the aforementioned baked Alaska, on the house. Winners will be announced at 8:30pm on both Friday and Saturday.

Bundle up and book on OpenTable.
