If you’re looking for an old-fashioned holiday tradition that has a little something for both big and little kids alike, head to Historic Sutter Street in Folsom tomorrow, December 7 from 6-9 p.m. for the annual Christmas tree lighting.
This year’s event will include free train rides and photo opps with Santa (bring your camera!). In addition to singing from local groups and an ice rink just waiting for you to glide across, Snooks Chocolate Factory will host a hot cocoa booth where you can purchase a steaming cup of holiday tradition. Or head down to their store—only one block from the festivities—and experience a mug of traditional hot chocolate, made from steamed milk and gourmet chocolate.
And, since you’re there, why not make a night of it? Enjoy dinner at any one of the fabulous restaurants along Sutter Street, such as Sutter Street Steakhouse, Chicago Fire, Samuel Horne’s Tavern, or two new restaurants – Hampton’s on Sutter and the Fat Rabbit Public House.
Celebrate the holidays with food, family and some good old-fashioned fun!
