My friend Sephra Towbin is hosting a fantastic-sounding olive oil tasting dinner at Miel, a Provençal brasserie in the Intercontinental in Boston, this Wednesday, July 30 at 6:30 p.m.
Miel specializes in organic French fare featuring the flavors of Provence–olive oil, honey, and lavender–so it is especially fitting that they team up with olive oil purveyors, O&Co. for a night of food and new-harvest olive oil tasting.
Chef Didier Montarou has developed a special menu for the four-course meal (each course complemented by wine and olive oil pairings), but I hope for your sake that at least one item from their regular menu–Sweet Provençal Soup (sautéed berries and candied olives with lavender ice cream)–is included in this dinner, as it sounds especially intriguing.
$95.00. Seating is limited. Call 617-217-5151 for reservations (required).
