Celebrate “Fat Tuesday” at The Village Shops!
March is only a day away! Here at The Village Shops, March has us thinking of Mardi Gras and all things purple, green and gold! Mardi Gras is often associated with beads, masks, parades, and food. However, Mardi Gras is actually French for “Fat Tuesday”, emphasizing the last night to eat rich, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lent season.
This year Fat Tuesday falls on Tuesday, March 1st. What better way is there to start out the month than a Fat Tuesday celebration at The Village Shops? A tradition of over-indulging in food is definitely a concept worth participating in, especially when it involves endless/delicious menu options, waterfront views, and a trip to Naples’ only Ben & Jerry’s for dessert.
