The following is a “script” for one of Matt’s segments:
Anyone who is a regular visitor to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has surely enjoyed feasting their eyes on some of the most delicious and sumptuous art in the world. The collection is an international banquet in which each patron can taste cultures from all over the world all without leaving the historic building at 465 Huntington Avenue.
With the recent opening of 465 Bar and Restaurant, the Museum is offering a perfect place to dine on internationally-inspired cuisine while taking a break from the visual banquet or even as a destination of its own.
Sparsely but artistically decorated (as might be expected), 465 makes for a comfortable and contemporary spot to take a break from a day of viewing, to look over your own commercial creations, or to celebrate with family and friends.
Among the “small plates” options are Sriracha-dusted chips, roasted Japanese eggplant, an heirloom tomato tartine, hand-cut pappardelle, and a sous videwatermelon with whipped feta and pickled jalapenos, For those with a larger appetite, there are also painterly plates of grilled chicken paillard, a fully-dressed tuna nicoise, pan-roasted dayboat haddock, and a dry-aged sirloin for two.
The friendly front bar offers an international wine list, beers from local faves like Sam Adams, Downeast, and Jack’s Abby, and creative cocktails like a Ketel One cucumber martini and the spicy and smooth Ginger Trail. For those who wish to be sophisticated without getting sauced, mocktails like the coconut water-based Fruit Basket and the effervescent Island Mule go well with any dish.
For the final stroke, be sure to save room for a Nutella-stuffed skillet cookie for two, that is worth the trip on its own and that will surely leave a good impression no matter when you visit.
