The Food Monkey: Taste of the Back Bay--March 27

Mike of The Food Monkey has joined Bostonist to share his thoughts about cooking, food history, restaurant trends, and any other Epicurean issues. He promises to discuss what tastes good, but not always what is in good taste. For more on consuming the opponents and other food news, go to The Food Monkey website. To contact Mike, go to the Food Monkey's contact page.

The Taste of the Back Bay is this coming Thursday, March 27th 6:30-9:30--tonight!--at the Prudential Skywalk, and will benefit the Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay, which works to "…combat community deterioration, to preserve and protect the architectural beauty of the Back Bay, and to further Back Bay’s residential character."

Tickets run $85-$100 per person, but if it's anywhere as good as Taste of the South End was, it should be quite an event. You can buy tickets online here.
