It's not every year that the city gets to essentially experience not one, but two Halloween weekends: Folks who didn't want to party on a Thursday (and wanted to be a sexy fireman or frog instead of giving out candy on the 31st) were taking to bars and clubs last weekend.

But as Halloween takes over most of our weekend to-do list and restaurant & bar events, there are a couple of other gems kicking around (a table d'hôte festival returns! Mozart performances! A visual Tintin experience imported from France!) for those of you who consider the spooky stuff a one-and-done after last week.
