Earlier this week Jo and I went to one of the Harvest Vegan Dinners at UpStairs on the Square. They’ve been doing a four course, gourmet vegan tasting menu (with optional wine pairings) monthly.
The next is scheduled for Tuesday, November 25th, and if you haven’t been you should absolutely check it out whether you’re vegan or just interested in gourmet food – call 617-864-1933 for reservations.
Here’s the menu from last week:
Chopped Salad of Endives, Pears & Spiced Walnuts
Soup of Locally-Foraged Wild Mushrooms, with Crispy Frybread
Baked Siena Farm Delecata Squash, Stuffed with Dried Fall Fruits with Grains & Herbs
Chocolate Glazed Pumpkin Cake
Sweet Cranberry Coulis
We also had delicious (vegan) wines from Marc Kreydenweiss – a Pinot Blanc, a Chardonnay, and (I believe) a Syrah.
Thanks to Eric and the Boston Vegan Association for encouraging / promoting dinners like this one.
