Enjoy some food and drink with a healthy dollop of history thrown in for good measure when The Fireplace celebrates the 300th anniversary of the Boston Massacre on Saturday, March 2nd. Widely considered by scholars to be the birth of the “right to a fair trial” concept, the event is a crucial part of American history that chef, restaurant owner and all around patriot Jim Solomon plans to commemorate with an afternoon of food and drink inspired by the founding fathers. The $30 afternoon will feature spiced tea, shandies and flips plus plenty of sweet and savory pies. Reservations are a good idea – get yours by calling 617.975.1900 and get to the Washington Square restaurant by 3:00pm.
