⚓ this week on LBI: 1/22/26

Mornin’!

🚨 Calling all private chefs and cooks in the area… we’re helping to bring a supper club to LBI and are in search of a chef (or several) who would like to collaborate on the initiative. If you’re a chef in the area (or willing to travel to LBI) and are comfortable cooking for up to 50 people at once, we wanna chat! Please fill out this quick form with some info on yourself and we’ll get back to you with additional details!

P.S. Keep your eyes on the weather forecast the next few days. We have the chance for some serious snow accumulation on Sunday depending on which track the storm takes.

Now, here’s what’s happening this week…
