Hump Day gets a healthy does of carbs this October at The Salty Pig. Chef Michael Bergin and his team have just launched Butta La Pasta, a mid-week pop-up tasting menu at their intimate, three-seat chef’s counter. Available every Wednesday at 6:00 & 8:00pm seatings only, the three-course prix fixe costs $40 per person, with an optional wine pairing available for $20 per person. You’ll be the envy of dining room as you tuck into plates of orecchie di prete, bucatini or raviolo. The offerings will change from one week to the next but you can see a sample menu below to get an idea of what’s in store. Reservations are recommended — call 617.536.6236 for yours.
