Speaking of back to school – if you’ve got a yearning for the classroom, take a peek through the fall Seminars in Food, Wine & the Arts at Boston University. They’re offering a whole semester’s worth of gastronomic education – and they’ve gotten some serious local talent involved in the teaching. Prepare one pot meals with Blue Ginger‘s Ming Tsai; sign on to go Whole Hog with 51 Lincoln‘s Jeffrey Fournier; feast on a true enoteca meal from Coppa‘s Ken Oringer and Jamie Bissonnette; enjoy Alsatian specialties from chef Jeremy Sewall and the team at Eastern Standard; snack on something sweet with the pastry chefs behind the menus at Oleana, Flour Bakery, Myers + Chang and Hungry Mother; or drink like a literary superstar with Eastern Standard’s Jackson Cannon who’ll be exploring the role of the cocktail in American literature. Check out the full array of offerings and get all the details on BU’s website or call 617.353.9852.
