Hey Friends!

Miss hanging out with us?  Wait no longer!  We're organizing a summer social next month at the popular, and one-of-a-kind Cafe du Pays, Boston's only hot spot that pays homage to the rich and flavorful cuisine of our neighbors to the north.  Meet co-owner Heather Mojer, whose French-Canadian roots via 19th century immigration to Western Massachusetts were the primary inspiration for the restaurant's concept, and chef Dan Amighi (La Brasa, Little Big Diner) who interprets many of the Quebecois menu staples seasonally with New England produce and seafood.  Taste complimentary selections of this satisfying and heart-warming in a beautiful setting.  Try a craft cocktail with a focus on French spirits, wine, or a Canadian beer from the Franc-o-fied bar.  

Register here.  We can't wait to see you there!
