Harvest Hosts The Last Course

Harvest Website

On Thursday, September 3rd, Harvest is skipping dinner and going straight to dessert at The Last Course, a collaborative six-course tasting menu. Pastry Chef Brian Mercury teams up with guest confectioner Tracy Obolsky of North End Grill in New York City to dole out desserts that’ll make your head spin (see the menu below). The evening will begin promptly at 7:00pm with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres (Alright, fine. There are some savories but after that it’s all sweets) followed by complete immersion in all things pastry. Tickets for the tasting, which are available online here, cost $65 each with an optional wine pairing for an additional $30. Call Harvest at 617.868.2255 to indulge your sweet tooth; just don’t tell your dentist.
