Liquid Art House celebrates their second anniversary with a colorful night of creative dishes and drinks. On Monday, May 16th, chef Chris Chung of Aka Bistro will join chef Doug Rodrigues in the kitchen for a collaborative a la carte menu—the chefs will riff on Japanese small plates like Hawaiian tuna poke and artichoke tempura. The special menu is available from 5:00-10:00pm, before the dance floor opens with DJ Jeff Gill (10:00pm-12:00am) and DJ Epileptech (12:00-1:00am). Beyond the auditory arts, the night will feature visual displays by artists MerkThose, Chris Reilly and Ed Capeau who will present live body art on local models from 10:00pm-1:00am. Call 617.457.8130 with any questions and head over at 5:00pm for the birthday bash.
