Prix Fixe Menu (at Sportello) + Live Music (at the ICA) = Night Out


Dinner and a movie?

Nah.

Dinner and a live music performance?

Hmmm...

How about dinner (when it's prix-fixe at
Sportello) and a live music performance (when the music is at the Institute of Contemporary Art from unconventional pianist Christopher O'Riley showcasing songs by R.E.M., Nirvana, the Cocteau Twins and more)?

Now that's much, much more like it.

Call it a night out on Boston's waterfront.

We call it art.

Of the edible and the performance varieties.

WHERE:
Sportello, 348 Congress Street, Boston
