ALLocal Dinners
ALLocal Dinners are unique events – with ALL standing for Absolutely Local and Luscious. During these evening events, all food served by the locally owned restaurant will be locally sourced, whether it is January or July! We define Local as starting at the restaurant stretching out through Massachusetts and staying within New England.
One of Boston Local Food’s goals is to encourage diverse restaurants in metro Boston to include more local food on their menus. ALLocal Dinners are fun evenings that challenge everyone involved to expand their perceptions and boundaries about local food. Partially funded by MA Dept. of Agriculture, ALLocal Dinners bring together local food leaders and enthusiasts for collaborative conversation and a delicious meal at a locally owned restaurant. ALL ingredients are locally sourced, produced, delivered and prepared locally-right down to the salt. Some chefs are leaders in the local food movement while others have never tried it.
Come and learn more about the local food challenges and successes. Check out upcoming dinners and past venues.
If you have suggestions for new locations, please contact Fan Watkinson at fan@sbnboston.org. Generally we seek restaurants of all types of cuisine that are locally owned, large enough for 60+ guests, accessible through public transportation and eager to learn ways to include more local food in their menus.
