It’s time for an all-new tasting menu at Bistro du Midi to usher in the summer season, and you can help chef partner Robert Sisca and the gang kick things off in style on Thursday, June 18th. Be one of the first to indulge in Passport to Le Midi, a new seven-course experience inspired by the flavors and charm of Southern France with thoughtfully paired wines from Bandol, Burgundy, Bordeaux and beyond. Take a peek at the stacked lineup below with East Coast oysters with kaluga caviar, bluefin tuna crudo, warm Alaskan king crab with ricotta gnocchi, black truffle tagliatelle and Mishima Reserve American Wagyu.
Tickets for dinner cost $360 per person, which includes all your food and wine. The official fun starts at 6:00pm in the lovely upstairs dining room, but you can always head to the Back Bay a little early and grab a martini at the adorable bistro bar on the first floor. Get reservations on OpenTable and give the restaurant a call at 617.426.7878 if you have any Qs.
