You know how the saying goes: can’t stand the heat…get out onto the patio at Townsman…or something like that. Chef-owner Matt Jennings and Co. celebrate the sharp increase in temperature by inviting guests to come chill on their patio. On Thursday, May 18th, there’ll be Don Julio margaritas, sangria, live flamenco music and border bar bites (that means pork belly tacos, fish tacos, ceviche, taquitos and rellenos). There’s no cover, just lots of good a la carte eats. Call 617.993.0750 for more info or play it cool and just stop by between 4:00 and 7:00pm.
