Bar Boulud Welcomes Robert Foley for a Wine Dinner
Bar Boulud proudly welcomes Robert Foley Vineyards from Napa Valley, a small family-owned and operated winery known for their incredibly rich red blends, including his floral and mouth-coating Claret (Foley’s flagship wine), and alternative grape usage such as Charbono, Petite Sirah and White Rhône Blend. Robert Foley is one of the few remaining producers that still cultivates the Charbono Grape, creating an expressive and delicious wine that features: blueberry jam, anise and herbal flavors supported with elevated acidity.
Join Sommelier David Bérubé with special guest, Robert Foley, for this exclusive and educational five-course dining experience.

Celebrate Earth Day at OAK Long Bar + Kitchen
OAK Long Bar + Kitchen is celebrating Earth Day on Sunday, April 22 by turning off its lights from 5 p.m. through closing to conserve energy. More than a hundred candles will be placed throughout the dining room to illuminate the space for an unforgettable “Earth, Wine & Fire” candlelit dinner experience in one of Boston’s most beautiful restaurants.
A special à la carte menu by Executive Chef Graham Lockwood will feature sustainably sourced courses and replace the regular dinner menu for the evening. Each dish will highlight ingredients from New England farms and purveyors (see select farms noted below), and the menu’s wine pairings will spotlight New York State and Oregon wines that are produced and grown with sustainable and biodynamic farming practices. A three-course wine pairing will be offered for $30, or these wines can be ordered by the glass for $13-$18 depending on the selection. Those dining between 5-7 p.m.will receive a complimentary taste of rosé upon arrival. The regular bar menu will also be available.
Sunday’s customers will be some of the first to enjoy OAK as a non-plastic straw establishment. The restaurant is permanently ditching plastic straws starting this Friday, April 20. OAK has already been mindful to create cocktails that don’t require a straw, but for those that do and all other straw requests, Hay! Straws will be used moving forward, which are made from natural wheat stems and are 100% biodegradable. The special “Earth, Wine & Fire” dinner menu will be printed on plantable seed paper, and no single-use item (like cocktail napkins) will be offered to tables.
