Day 11: 5-Course Modern Locavore Tasting Series

Opened in 2018, this Cambridge eatery focuses on local and seasonally inspired ingredients, a passion that earned it a Boston Globe “Best Restaurant” Award Win that year - and its chef, Conor Dennehy, a 2024 James Beard Semi-Finalist nod for “Best Chef: Northeast.” A Massachusetts native who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America, Chef Dennehy earned his stripes working in Boston under James Beard Award-Winning chefs Jamie Bissonnette, Ken Oringer and Jody Adams. As Chef de Cuisine at T.W. Food in Cambridge, he fine-tuned his personal cooking style and sharpened his techniques. With his wife Danielle Ayer, he launched Tallula, named for their infant daughter, and here his elegant menu features starters like stonefruits with burrata and cornbread and chilled strawberry soup, superb pastas, and mains like pork shoulder with grits and plum bbq and whole roasted eggplant with farro, pistachio, and mint. Leave room too for desserts like rhubarb parfait and mixed berry tart with lavender whipped cream - you'll be glad you did!
