Benefitting

The Greater Boston Food Bank which:

• to more than 600 member hunger-relief agencies in a dedicated partnership to end hunger in eastern Massachusetts.
• The Food Bank serves 83,000 people each week.

What is it?

A multi stop “tour" gives guests an opportunity to experience various labels paired with cuisine from local renowned chefs. Float away on a sea of bubbles all for a good cause.

All the best houses are represented and probably one or two the average guest hasn't yet tried.

Moët? Sure, Veuve Clicquot? Of course. Perrier Jouët? Mais bien sûr! And so many, many more!

Okay, I love Champagne, but what else?

How about food from top restaurants in Boston. Radius, Henrietta’s Table, L’Espalier, Rialto, Sel de la Terre, Bouchée, Upstairs on the Square, Oya, Zygomates, Avila and T.W. Food

Joining Tour de Champagne in Boston, White House Executive Pastry Chef for 25 years Roland Mesnier will share his expertise and talk about his new book All the President’s Pastries. Guests will have the opportunity to meet Chef Mesnier, hear about his White House experiences and have him sign their favorite of his delicious books.
 

Et en fin?

The "Fin de Soirée" begins at 10:00 to 11:30 p.m. complimentary champagne and fine cognac tasting, dessert selection, music by the ‘Jeremy Carlstedt Quartet’, crepes station by ‘Trois Crepes’ of New York, a unique gift bag and more.
