Celebrate New Year's Eve at the Rookery
New Year's Eve is just a few days away.
And per tradition, the Rookery is featuring our
fabulous five course New Year's Eve feast to mark the occasion. Starring, as always, Maine lobster. Including our
signature
lobster bisque. Described by some regular New Year's Eve guests as "
s
upercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
"
Yet Chef Tim has been working hard to compliment these tasty crustaceans with some delectable new twists to our special five course menu. As a result, we truly believe this will be our best New Year's Eve feast ever!
And adding to the ambiance once again will be Madeline Island 12 string guitar virtuoso, Ric Gillman
. Ric has recorded, played, and toured with some of the music industry's best regional and national talents. His duo performances (with fiddler Bruce Bowers) always are among the most popular of our summer outdoor concert series. Ric has been so well received by our guests in the past that he's essentially become part of the Rookery's New Years Eve tradition, joining us this year for the fourth consecutive time.
This Saturday promises to be a very special evening at the Rookery. We hope you'll join us! Please call now for best choice of remaining seating.
