Parsnip gets their brand new brunch service off to a spooktacular start on Sunday, October 30th. Round up your gaggle of ghosts, ghouls and goblins and get to Harvard Square between 11:00am and 2:30pm for kid-friendly festivities out on the patio and delicious a la carte food and drink indoors. The little ones can get into the spirit of the holiday decorating pumpkins, sipping cider and nibbling on cookies to their heart’s content, while grownups can get into the spirits in a more literal sense with make-your-own bellinis and mimosas and plenty of breakfast-y and lunch-ish dishes. Costumes are encouraged as are reservations. Call 617.714.3206 for a table.
