Thursday Sips & Nibbles

I'm back again with a new edition of Sips & Nibbles, my regular column where I highlight some interesting, upcoming food & drink events. For now, some of these events will simply be the opening of certain restaurants, generally ones dear to my heart for a variety of reasons. And I hope everyone dines out safely, and tips well. 

******************************************************

1) Rosebud American Kitchen & Bar, in Davis Square, Somerville, has recently expanded their hours so now they are open Monday through Friday, starting at 11am. Their Lunch menu is now available from 11am-5pm, though this menu includes numerous Breakfast items as well, including French Toast, Omelettes, and Waffles. At 5pm, their Dinner menu then becomes available. On the weekends, Brunch starts at 10am. 

You can call for a reservation at 617-629-9500, or you can order online for pick-up or delivery.

2) Tambo 22, the new Peruvian restaurant in Chelsea (and which is becoming one of my new favorites) is now offering special Party Trays for the holidays. You can get many of their Peruvian dishes in large format party trays, perfect for your socially-distanced gatherings and holiday parties. 

You can order a Half-Tray (feeds 8-10 people) or a Full Tray (feeding 16-20 people). There are six Starters available, such as Ceviche and Anticuchos de Carne o Paiche, and three Salads. There are also five Entrees available, such as Aji de Gallina en Tazon and Pulled Pork, as well as five Sides, like Risotto and Criolla Onion Salad. You can even order a Pitcher of one of their Cocktails, like Sangria or Tambo Tiki.

You need to give them at least 24 hours notice, and you can call them to order at 617-466-9422, or fill out the form on their website at Party Trays.
