Paladar Opening Night!

Paladar opening night was a great success - a fantastic, vibrant gathering of old and new friends around five courses, each of which went off without a hitch! Please enjoy the photographs of the Paladar's opening night highlighting the food prep and setting for the evening.




Of course, this taste of success does not mean that we are resting on our laurels! In fact, we are wasting no time in gearing up for Paladar #2 on Saturday, October 17. We are looking forward to perfecting the second menu, which will feature the rich, warm and spicy flavors of mid-fall.

A big thanks goes to the delightful group of bon vivants who attended Paladar's opening night - we greatly enjoyed sharing this exciting evening with you and are endlessly grateful for your feedback and support!

For information about the next Paladar evening on Saturday October, 17th please email us at paladarboston@gmail.com.

Cocktails, Anyone?

For our debut night we plan to feature a brand new cocktail: the Myrtle Street Mojito. This refreshing cocktail has ingredients even we didn't know would work perfectly with white rum. For example: Cardamom?!

We hope the MSM will do it's job of opening the taste buds and hearts of our first attendees!
