Fire in the Grange Kitchen Concert & Dinner
$50.00
Long-time friends Charlie Shafer- Fire in the Kitchen and the Kimberlys- American Wanderer are joining forces to bring an incredible evening of music to the Norfield Grange in Weston, CT.
Fun Fact: Fire in the Kitchen is on sort of a roll...in the past two years, three of the young bands we've introduced at the outdoor concerts have been picked up by a pretty superb booking agency, hopefully launching them to the stars and beyond.
One of these is Rakish, made up of Maura Shawn Scanlin and Conor Hearn, who are the main players in Pumpkin Bread Band, seen in August at the Rettich Preserve. Rakish was primarily a Celtic duo, Maura Shawn having won the world Scots fiddling championship. But, when you're really good, you're really good, and you can do pretty much everything. It's no surprise then that this tune, an original, old-timey feel thing, is as exceptional as everything else they do. And they'll be visiting us the Saturday before St. Paddy's day in March, but with a twist. It'll be Fire In The (Grange) Kitchen along with American Wanderer Foundation. Rakish YouTube

How’s this for a hidden gem pizza pop-up?
You follow Tony Pizza Napolitano on Facebook. You wait for a post with a schedule and menu—it usually posts by midday on Monday. Days and times typically reads something like, “Silverman’s Farm on Wednesdays, the Norfield Grange in Weston on Thursdays and Fridays, 4 – 7 p.m. for all three days.”
But that’s not written in stone. It’s wise to check the weekly posts to make sure. If pizza strikes your fancy on Silverman’s days, just show up. If you’re a Thursday or Friday pizza person—meaning at the Norfield Grange—you have to direct message the Facebook account to work out and confirm a time slot. Walk-ins? Ehhh. Sometimes. It’s best to reserve. Don’t chance it. No advance orders necessary, you can do that when you arrive. Cash is preferred but Venmo is OK, too.
There it is. All laid out for you. Easy-peasy, right?
Good.
But now that that’s out of the way…
Who is this “Tony,” anyway?
The “Tony” in question is Anthony Kesselmark. He has been a Weston resident for a decade and counting, and he previously owned a few restaurants in Dutchess County, a burger joint in Poughkeepsie and a few pizzerias in that area, one of which was Pizza & Stuff in Beacon.
Now, he’ll tell you, this is his business. “Thirty, maybe 20-25 years later, here I am,” Kesselmark says. “I started three years ago as a side gig to make a couple extra bucks simultaneously while I ran my restaurants. The response was good, people liked the pizza. It’s not a side gig anymore.”
