The only thing that might make this heat even remotely tolerable? A Tiki Party on the patio at Via Matta. On Thursday, July 18th you can catch a breeze at one of the umbrella-topped tables as you cool down with an umbrella-topped beverage at the Back Bay enoteca. They’ll be welcoming guests with tunes from DJ Soulo, drink specials and free eats from 8:00-11:00pm (arrive early – chef Leo Asaro’s gratis snacks tend to disappear quickly). Call 617.422.0008 for details or just swing by.
