What: Family-style dinner at Cafe Presse

Where: The back room at Cafe Presse
This January, Cafe Presse is happy to debut a new quarterly event that we call the Cafe Presse Corner Table. The Corner Table is a fixed price dinner designed to celebrate the changing season and the conviviality of the table. The meal will include 3 courses from Cafe Presse’s seasonal menu presented in the traditional style that one might be served if invited to the home of a French family. The meal will also include French country wines selected by wine manager Marcel Boulanger. It’s not about connoisseurship or solemn swirling and sniffing. Instead, come celebrate the best that the season has to offer and the simple pleasure of gathering together with good things to eat and drink. The cost is $23 per person for food only, or $38 including wine. We hope you can join us.
Family-style meal begins at 6:30pm…no late arrivals please.
From 6pm to 6:30pm please join us for a no host aperitif.
