Farm to Post: Summer Seafood Kick Off Dinner

Post 390 Facebook

Summertime in New England is pretty much synonymous with eating lots of seafood, and the team at Post 390 is getting a head start on Wednesday, June 5th with a special dinner in their “Farm to Post” series. Swing over to Stuart Street for a 6:00pm cocktail hour, slew of apps and four courses from chef Nick Deutmeyer and his kitchen crew.

The whole menu, details of which are included below, is locally sourced from regional purveyors like Island Creek Oysters, Wulf’s Fish and Snappy Lobster. Tickets are $55 each (plus a tiny processing fee), which includes everything for the evening: welcome reception, all dishes, beverages pairings and even tax & gratuity. Get ’em here before they’re sold out. Can’t make it? This special menu will be part Post 390’s nightly line-up for the first few weeks in June so you can still partake – call 617.399.0015 for a table.
