Picnic Pop Up!

7 Jul

Boston is beautiful, and our friends over at the Rose Kennedy Greenway have awesome venues for you to come and soak in all this city has to offer. So when we were thinking about hosting a pop-up with the folks over at East by Northeast, the Greenway’s Rings Fountain was the first location to come to mind.

On Wednesday, July 25th, we’ll be throwing a Picnic Pop Up and serving up a fusion of flavors from both ours and East by NorthEast’s menus. Leading the culinary creations will be Chef Phillip Tang, who was named Best Up and Coming Chef in 2010 for Boston Magazine, and our own Chef Ali Fong, who was named Awesome at Everything by Patrick.

Tickets will be $15 online and if bought beforehand on our trucks or at East by Northeast, and $18 dollars if at the event. The price will include:

  • One Chilled Soup Shooter,
  • The Bon Me Sandwich with a ExNE entree filling,
  • A Fresh Seasonal Vegetable Side,
  • and One Sweet Dessert!

A vegetarian option will be available, and we’ll be providing blankets for you to borrow to help create that picnic feel. So come grab your friends and get outside (we already know there’s not going to be anything good on TV that day….) and join us for some great food and fun times!
