Escape to Alsace at Gaslight. Throughout November and December, the South End brasserie is offering a three-course prix fixe that will transport you (and your palate) straight to France. There are beaucoup combinations to choose from (see below), so there are plenty of ways to enjoy your excursion. They’ll happily pair the menu with Trimbach wines or, if wine’s not your thing, they can suggest a beer pairing instead. The menu costs $33 per person ($50 with wine) (not including tax and gratuity), and is available every day in addition to Gaslight’s regular dinner menu starting at 5:00pm. To book a reservation and find out more, call 617.422.0224.
