Are you in search of an upscale eating establishment? Something delicious to tantalize your discerning palette? Throw aside the ideas of that faux upscale chain restaurant; they may be okay for those of less discerning taste. You will indulge in the best of Boston private dining. Whether you need it for a wedding luncheon, an employee recognition, or a 40th birthday party, you will be in foodie heaven while dining on Mediterranean delicacies.
Mediterranean Dining
With an emphasis on fresh and healthy dining, Mediterranean cuisine incorporates vegetables and fruit, seafood and poultry, grains, beans, and pasta. Olive oil is the main source of fat incorporated into the dishes. The main vegetables used in the cuisine are eggplant, artichokes, tomatoes, legumes, onion, squash, mushrooms, and cucumbers. Yogurt and cheese are also major players in the dishes created by Mediterranean chefs.
Spices
Besides the particular fruits, vegetables, proteins, and sauces, there is a veritable rainbow of spices used to season the dishes. Some of these spices include the following:
- Allspice: used in marinades for poultry and seafood, this flexible spice can also be found in rice and dessert dishes as well. Said to be a single spice that resembles a mix of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
- Anise Seed: Used to flavor both sweet and savory dishes, this licorice-tasting spice can be found in breads, seafood, and desserts.
- Annatto Seed: Annatto seed adds a warm, peppery, sweet flavor to Mediterranean dishes. It is mainly used in meats, stews, grains, seafood, sauces, and legumes. Annatto seed also adds a rich orange color to the dishes it seasons.
Ambiance
Outside of the obvious deliciousness of the cuisine, you want the ambiance of fine Boston private dining. Whether you have the whole place for just the two of you or a night with 137 of your closest friends enjoying dishes hailing from Albania, Greece, and Southern Italy, if a sit down dinner party isn’t what you have in mind, you can have an upscale cocktail party. The ambiance you will find at a private dining facility will be unmatched. People will be talking of the food, service, and party for years to come.
