Celebrate start of the holiday shopping at the Black Friday Dinner at Persephone on Friday, November 28th. Chefs Michael Leviton and Jeff Pond will be serving up a four-course in-the-black menu. Order it as a prix fixe (for $45 per person) or pick and choose a la carte options like wilted black kale salad with anchoiade dressing; seared squid with roasted tomatoes, toasted garlic and squid ink sauce; boudin noir, celery root puree, roasted apples and bacon; and a black and tan float with Guinness ice cream and a black and white cookie. While you’re there, poke around The Achilles Project where, in keeping with the Black Friday theme, all merchandise will be 20% off with guests who wear black receiving an additional 5% off. Both the boutique and the restaurant open their doors at 11:30am, and the restaurant closes at 10pm, so be sure to drop by at some point and celebrate the day after Thanksgiving in style. Call 617.695.2257 for more information or to reserve a table.
