Lost Dog's annual Mardi Gras celebration
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A popular eatery in downtown Binghamton is out to prove there's no Tuesday like Fat Tuesday. The Lost Dog Cafe on Henry Street is hosting its annual Mardi Gras celebration tomorrow evening with the lounge opening at 4 p.m. and dinner service starting at 5. There will be the traditional, festive menu with dishes like Jambalaya, hot and spicy crunchy chicken, and boozy banana pudding. Live New Orleans-style music will once again be performed by the Basin Street Jazz Band starting at 5:30 and the group will be on their feet, roaming around the restaurant. And all diners will get a complimentary piece of King Cake, and if you're lucky enough to find the tiny plastic baby in your slice, your meal is on the house. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
