A Taste of Ethnic Boston
is now returning on
July 30th
Big Night Live
110 Causeway St.
Boston
A Taste of Ethnic Boston Food Festival fills Big Night Live (located in North Station), an illustrious and flashy nightlife venue that can accommodate over 1,500 people. This event is an upscale and sophisticated tasting of some of Boston's ethnic restaurants, with a taste of every diverse community representing the best of our City and our State.
We want to invite you into the lives and culture from the Caribbean & Mediterranean kitchens to whimsical and soul-infused experiences, Black-owned lounges and restaurants to the lively Latino dance and entertainment venues, and traditional but modern Korean and Hawaiian-inspired menus that honor the ingredients and the flavors all across Asia.
Featuring Gourmet Bites from Ethnic Restaurants of Boston run by Chefs of Color
