From a press release:
Pittston’s Peculiar Culinary Company will be presenting a series of pop-up restaurants at the River Street Jazz Cafe (667 N. River St., Plains), in conjunction with Camp Rattler, starting on Tuesday, Dec. 2.
For dinner reservations from 6 p.m.-9 p.m., call 570-212-0960 soon, as these pop-ups with innovative cuisines are known to sell out quickly. There is a cash bar, and live music will be provided by Bjorn Jacobsen, appropriately playing a song called “Peculiar” in the video below:
