While the rest of Boston was being Irish for the day, I was being a hungry runner. So after hitting the pavement for 20 miles, I wanted to take advantage of Restaurant week. Restaurant week is a way to Boston’s finest dining at affordable prices. Well more affordable than before since affordable is a relative term.
3 Course Lunch – $20.13
3 Course Dinner – $38.13
As you can see lunch is a much better deal than dinner so I try to make it to one or two lunches each time restaurant week comes. This Sunday Tony and I hit up B & G Oysters
We started with a few oysters (not part of the prefixe menu).
We both got the clam chowder but unfortunately the clams were overcooked. However, minus the clams, the soup was delicious.
Scallops, complete and utter perfection! Dayboat scallops with fennel puree, farro, poached celery root
Actually I lied, this dessert was heaven. Salted Heath bar chocolate mousse.
Pound cake Tony picked, it was okay but I wouldn’t die for it.
Do you participate in something similar to restaurant week?
We had a restaurant week here, but I kind of forgot about it! It sounded like fun when I read about it, but then the dates came and went. It was the first year Spokane has done this, so maybe next year if they do it again there will be more advertising to remind me. 🙂
Those scallops look PHENOMENAL! I like Oysters too but I really only like them poached! 😉
I love restaurant week. It is much harder to go now with the kiddo but we still try to go at least once each restaurant week.
