Five Things to Do in Collingswood This Week: 1/21/13 to 1/27/13

1. Homestyle Classics Restaurant Week

Monday, Jan. 21—Saturday, Jan. 26 at Casona, El Sitio, Pop Shop, That's Amore and Tortilla Press

Well, there's no Mac-Off this year (boo!—Ed.), but in lieu of that, five of Collingswood's homiest kitchens are collaborating to bring you a multi-course, prix fixe comfort-food jamboree. (For menu details, see Dave Valiante's column here.) It's not time to think about your beach figure for at least another two months, right?

Led by Patch film blogger Bob Castle, Collingswood Movie Night welcomes cinema fans of every stripe on the fourth Tuesday of the month at the Collingswood Library. Note the change in time. Get a brief introduction to the film, a fun chat after, and light refreshments. It's free!
