Cambridge’s beloved Forage restaurant is celebrating its 9th birthday on Tuesday, April 16th in the most Forage-y way possible – with a wine dinner featuring some of their favorite natural wines. Book your table, bust out your birthday party attire and get over to Craigie Circle for an epic four-course menu from chef Eric Cooper. You’ll have to choose between the omnivore and vegetarian versions (see both below) but they’ll take care of everything else – they are true hospitality professionals, after all. The whole spread (food & wine) costs $110 per person (before tax and tip). You can give them a ring at 617.576.5444 if you’ve got Qs or if you just want to say happy birthday.
