Annual Lunar New Year + Fifth Birthday Bash

Bolm Road sweet shop OMG Squee started in 2017 out of founder Sarah Lim’s home and now, in the Year of the Wood Snake, has achieved five years of brick-and-mortar pastry perfection. They celebrate every mochi donut, taiyaki sundae, and macaron this Saturday at a combo LNY and birthday bash with support from Fierce Whiskers Distillery and Topo Chico. Of course attendees can expect festive flavors at the bakery, such as their pre-order Lucky 8 Chinese pastries and free drinks, but they’ll also be hosting food pop-ups from local Asian culinary wizards like Lao’d Bar, Chanda Mau, and Chopsticks Street Food & Drinks. Plus, Kaiju Cut and Sew curates a vendor market, Summit Lion Dance performs, and the Mahjong Mafia teaches – what else – mahjong. – James Scott

Pardi Gras

So, actual Mardi Gras – as in, Fat Tuesday, the last day to go hog wild before abstemious Lent descends – isn’t until March 4, but that glorious house of beer-and-sausage that is Banger’s ain’t about waiting. Their annual Pardi Gras celebration sprawls out in a weekend-long bacchanalia boasting a Cajun menu (crawfish & andouille gumbo. gator hush puppies, et al.), bourbon & rum barrel-aged beers on tap, games, and live zydeco and traditional Cajun music. Free entry and open to all, including kiddos and pets. Pardi hardi, mes amis. – Kimberley Jones
