You love a good mason jar, like the kind Wicked Good Cupcakes fills with cupcake deliciousness and sells out
of Cohasset. And after a stint on Mark Cuban’s Shark Tank reality pitch show, they’ve just
opened shop in Faneuil Hall. Any cupcake Cuban enthusiastically devours is a cupcake for you.
ROARING FUN
Gatsby-ing the Night Away at Saloon
Now that Leo is bringing F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic back to the big screen, you’ve got Gatsby fever.
Embrace it tonight at Saloon via gratis giant cocktail shrimp and duck rillettes croquettes, as you sip
era-correct gin libations while going for best-dressed. Don’t be surprised if people call you Jay.
Friday
ON THE ROAD
Meet Tavern Road’s Little Lunch Buddy
TR Street Foods: it now exists. Think of it like a little sibling to Tavern Road. They’re good for
grab-and-go steak and cheese in ciabatta pockets, beef tacos, Moroccan turkey kebabs and salads. So grab.
And go.
Saturday
DERBY DERBY DOO
The Derby, Bourbon and the South End
You’ve got your seersucker suit all ready. Your date’s hat: huge. Next step: head to Darryl’s to watch
the Kentucky Derby with gratis cucumber sandwiches and bourbon-soaked wings. Oh, and you can also win $100
to JP hat emporium Salmagundi if your date sports the best big hat. Use it on more hats.
It’s unusual, but you have Scandinavia on the mind. So heads up: Sunday is your last chance to catch
Beowulf: A Thousand Years of Baggage at Oberon. Not only is it the epic poem, it’s performed with
a mix of cabaret, ’40s jazz, punk and electronica music woven in. Makes sense.
