The (Culinary) Time of Your Life

Nobody puts baby in a corner, unless, of course, it’s a corner table for pre-show food and drink specials. The movie-turned-live-musical Dirty Dancing has come to Boston and theater-goers can dine like stars with Bistro du Midi’s Avante-Théâtre Prix Fixe menu. Reservations for the three-course meal, available for $49 per person, can be made for 5:00pm or 5:30pm daily, leaving plenty of time to get to the theatre. All that dancing (dirty or otherwise) can leave one thirsty and local watering holes come to the rescue. Taj Boston The Bar will feature the Be My Baby cocktail, with watermelon (“I carried a watermelon”), mint, fresh lime and cachaça while Wink & Nod will go tropical with the Jamaican Me Swayze, featuring Appleton Estate Jamaican rum, Amaro Nonio, orange juice, lime juice and pomegranate, as a tribute to the film’s hunky dance instructor. For more info on the Dirty Dancing offers, call Bistro at 617.426.7878, The Café at the Taj at 617.598.5255 or Wink & Nod at 617.482.0117.
