Reminder! Right here in our events space at the Katonah Reading Room, next Saturday, March 28th, Bill "Tish" Tisherman -- a longtime area resident who now is part of the renaissance down the street at Katonah Wine & Liquor -- has integrated standup comedy with three courses of "hyper-local" food and five "sneaky good" wines.
