  • Wednesday, September 15, 6:00 pm – RAFT Vegetarian Heirloom Harvest Dinner

    The fields are overflowing! And thanks to the work of Chefs Collaborative and their RAFT Grow-Out, certain chef’s kitchens are the happy recipients of wonderful heirloom varieties of produce.

    Chef Greg Griffie at 606 Congress has risen to the challenge of creating a five course vegetarian meal with wine pairings included. Slow Food Boston supporters will be gathering at the restaurant at 6PM on Wednesday, September 15th for this lovely meal. Can I hear a ‘Hurrah’ for local produce?

    Cost for the evening will be $45 including the wine, with beer and cocktails available for an extra charge. There is limited seating, and registration and prepayment are required. If you’ve had the pleasure of attending one of the previous Slow Food meals at 606 Congress, you know that it will be sure to amaze your senses – so sign up today, on line at www.slowfoodboston.com!

    Directions:
    606 Congress is located in the Renaissance Hotel at 606 Congress Street in the Seaport area. There is lots of parking, and the Silver Line lets off just a few blocks away. Feel free to contact them with questions by phone: 617.476.5606 or on Facebook.
