2) On December 29, starting at 7:30pm, Michael Dutra – a Rhode Island native who has been performing his tribute to Frank Sinatra all over the United States since 2002 – will moonlight as “The Sultan of Swoon” at Tuscan Kitchen in the Seaport District over a three-course dinner featuring the finest artisan Italian cuisine.

A perfect Christmas gift for parents and old souls alike as well as a solution to those looking to escape the madness of New Year’s Eve in the city, this early celebration to close out 2018 showcase Dutra’s uncanny talents to channel “Ol’ Blue Eyes” in sound and style making for an unforgettable evening set amongst picturesque floor-to-ceiling windows in Tuscan’s lively bar and lounge area.

Chefs Joe Brenner and Nimesh Maharjan have designed a menu – dubbed “Fly Me to the Moon” – that will be served following a cocktail hour complete with hors d'oeuvres:

FIRST COURSE
Beets Salad (pistachio puree, goat cheese, mache, espresso vinaigrette)
SECOND COURSE
Petit Filet (mushroom risotto, roasted carrots, toasted breadcrumbs, Toscana reduction)
-or-
Baked Cod (salted cured celeriac, spinach, shrimp brood)
THIRD COURSE
