Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!
While many of the stores and eateries on Newbury Street in Boston’s tony Back Bay have sadly shuttered, one old friend has been offering consistent taste and quality for 20 years.
In celebration of two decades of great food and service, Piattini is offering a special birthday cocktail through May 9 so that guests can toast their success while brightening their own days as well (and boy do we ALL need that!).
Created by Owner Jo Olivieri Megwa, the Birthday Martini combines Tito’s Vodka, Godiva White Chocolate Liqueur, Crème de Cacao, Amaretto, and Funfetti Sprinkles and is a great complement to any of their popular lunch and dinner dishes, most of which recall the authentic Italian traditions of Jo’s grandmother while incorporating contemporary flavors as well.
Among the long-time favorites are the titular piattinis (small dishes) and popular panini sandwiches that are all made with imported cheeses and fresh vegetables, the satisfying beef, chicken, and seafood dishes, and artisan pizzas and pastas that are also available in gluten-free varieties. No matter what you order, be sure to save room for the homemade mousse, exclusive gelato, tiramisu and other sweet treats (all of which go well with the new martini, of course!).
Let’s raise a glass to Piattini and look forward to another 20 years!
