Earth Week (and Biodynamic Wines) All Next Week at Bambara

Earth Day turns 40 this year.

That's a big birthday.

But instead of getting all extravagant about it, Bambara Restaurantis reigning it in.

They'll be serving dishes composed of ingredients that come from very close -- to the ground, that is, and to Boston in general.

Such as Island Creekoysters from Duxbury, along with a mignonette made with wine from Westport Rivers.

And English peas from Verrill Farmin Concord.

And a main course of Berkshire pork shank.

Check out the full menu here. It's a little bit like a Massachusetts food tour, organic-style.

But notice the two bits that are right up top:

1. That this earth-friendly menu is available ALL WEEK, from Monday, April 19 to Saturday, April 24.

2. That wine pairings -- all from sustainable sources -- are a mere ten bucks extra.

Peace out.

"I'm like old wine. They don't bring me out very often, but I'm well preserved."
