Taste of Back Bay 2017

The Taste of Back Bay was a delight for the eyes, ears, and palates. The Skywalk Observatory at the Prudential Center was infused with savory delights and sweet sounds. An array of restaurants from Back Bay featured dishes that dazzled. 80 Thoreau crafted a smoked swordfish. Buttermilk and Bourbon provided deviled egg toast with Benton's country ham and hot pepper salad. Stephanie's on Newbury created a shrimp and scallop cevich. Eataly featured a crostini with house made mozzarello and pesto. If that were not enough, Georgetown Cupcake and Sweet were on hand providing decadent desserts.

Some of the photo highlights from the event are below.

21st Annual Taste of Back Bay

The exquisite 21st Annual Taste of Back Bay took place on May 19th at the Skywalk in Boston's Prudential Center.

The 360 degree view of Boston from the Skywalk was breathtaking.


The Top of the Hub provided a dish of halibut which was divine.

The French brasserie La Voile provided a beautiful arrangement of delectable treats to taste without flying to Paris.


Not only was the food fantastic to taste, the presentation was second to none.

Not to be missed, Georgetown Cupcake was on hand with some sweet desserts.


It was an incredible night in support of a worthy cause, Food for Free, which rescues fresh food that might otherwise go to waste and provides it to those in need.

Until next time, The Red Balloon is off to great places!
