It’s finally fall in New England and in honor of one of autumn’s time-honored traditions – apple-picking with family and friends – Artisan Bistro at The Ritz-Carlton, Boston is pleased to once again host a pop-up apple orchard within the restaurant so guests can enjoy the ‘fruits’ and flavors of the season, right here in the heart of the city.

On September 30 from 10am – 12 Noon, Artisan Bistro brings an orchard to life where guests can purchase homemade cider donuts, caramel apples, apple chutney and more.  Apple seeds will be given as a takeaway with any purchase and guests can also venture to Artisan Bistro’s bar where the “Boston Green Apple,” an apple infused sangria, is available for purchase as well.

As part of The Ritz-Carlton’s Community Footprints social and environmental responsibility to better serve and partner with local community organizations, Artisan Bistro is pleased to be supporting the family-operated Russell Orchards farm in Ipswich, Massachusetts. The hotel will showcase and sell a variety of their fresh picked apples and seasonal apple products at the urban apple orchard pop-up including apple strudel, honey, apple cider and vinegars.

For more information, please contact The Ritz-Carlton, Boston, 10 Avery Street, Boston at (617) 574-7100 or visit www.ritzcarlton.com/boston.  Guests visiting Artisan Bistro’s pop-up apple orchard are invited to share their favorite fall memories: @artisanbistroboston, #RCMemories

Join Bauer Wine and Spirits for the Art of Pairing

On Saturday, April 28, Bauer Wine and Spirits will be hosting the Art of Pairing from 4:30-6:30 P.M.

 Art is all around us, it just depends on what inspires you. What makes your mouth water on a cold bomb cyclone day in Boston might not be appealing at all on a hot July Sunday on the Cape. Just as weather impacts your appreciation of a meal, your choice of beverage can take a meal from good to great, or even from great to extraordinary. The Art of Pairing is an educational piece where you can learn the key to a successful meal–the passport for a beautiful harmonious marriage between food and drink. We will be serving Tenure Peach Fizz with smokey pulled pork sliders, Garden Punch- a Rosemary Rhubarb Lemonade, with cornbread, and a Coldbrew martini served with Pecan Pie!
