Season of Squash

PSL (that’s pumpkin spice latte) season may be here but Brasserie Jo is going back to basics with a gourd-geous October menu stuffed with squash. Every night of the autumnal month (the first full month of fall), chef Nick Calias and team will offer squash of all sizes in an array of preparations. The a la carte dishes – like savory pumpkin crepes, prawns with spaghetti squash, and classic butternut bisque – are available starting at 5:00pm each evening. See below to see the veggies and their seasonal accompaniments. Reservations can be made by calling 617.425.3240.
