this young man becomes a household name

Dear Restaurant Goer:

  I consider myself a food snob.  I love to eat.  But when I heard there was a restaurant just outside Boston that would bring me back to Europe, my first reaction was: I doubt it!

  I was thinking of some of the other restaurants I’ve been to.  Italian. Americanized. Huge portions. If that’s what this new one is, I won’t go back!

  But soon I discovered that isn’t the kind of restaurant the young chef and owner had in mind. Their wish for all of us is:

  ENJOY THE TANTALIZING TASTES
     WITH A RELAXING ATMOSPHERE.

  And they offer that relaxing atmosphere through the great pairing of foods, wine and
music.

  How? By using foods with an aphrodisiac quality paired with exceptional European
wines.

    They cook everything to order using only market fresh ingredients and homemade
            pastas
            They have a knowledgeable staff to help you select the most complementary wine
            for your meal.
            They play classical and jazz music of great European singers while you dine

  The owner only wants you to “buy” the idea of being in Europe.
    And it costs you nothing – except the experience.

  START YOUR EXPERIENCE – AT ONCE!

  Unless you are allergic to all types of food, you can start experiencing this Bistro on Broadway your first visit.  Even if you have specific dietary needs, most can be accommodated.  If you’re lactose intolerant, they can handle it. Atkins diet, no problem. High Cholesterol? Taken care of.

  Here’s a clue. Tell your waitperson that you have these needs.  Some menu items are bad, even down right dangerous if you have food allergies.  Unmodified, you may have a bad reaction.  By notifying your waitperson in advance, you’ll learn what menu items to avoid – and what items are safe, healthful and modifiable.

And, if your waitperson is not sure, they will certainly ask for you.  The chef and/or owner will make a recommendation for you, possibly speak with you directly or give you a few options for the next visit as well.

  And go back again you will! Even if you have a limited selection from their menu, you will be able to order off the menu again with more confidence – and enjoy a meal out with your family and friends.

  FINE DINING MISTAKES TO AVOID

    Overeating is one of three critical areas in which you can make serious, fine dining errors.  Another is being rushed.

  Many of us are living in a fast paced, environment where everything needs to happen right now, yesterday. This prompts us to eat too fast at a single meal.  Do you? There is a simple question you can ask yourself to see if this is true?  Where do I eat most of my meals on any given day?

  Another kind of bad fine dining habit, reports owner, creates “noise pollution” within the four walls of the restaurant when various rings of cell phones go off in the middle of conversations.  When this happens, the relaxed atmosphere – and you – become disturbed.

  One of the most serious and un-enjoyable consequences of fine dining errors is going while fighting. In fact, it is estimated that men more than women feel a romantic setting will help smooth things over when it really makes things worse. If you are male, you’re hoping to get your partner drunk so she forgets about the fight. If you are female, you’re hoping he won’t drink so you can talk. But, male or female, fighting does not help you relax and enjoy the ambience or each other’s company.

  HOW TO STOP AND SMELL THE AROMAS

  Enjoying each other’s company is one of the more difficult things to do right after a bad fight. Indeed, many people don’t even want to be in the same room - - let alone at the same table. If you are willing to rekindle those feelings, a romantic – fine dining restaurant is the place to go.

  Now there is a place to go for just that purpose.  It’s Broadway Bistro, Revere, MA.

  This restaurant whisks you away to another country, soothes your soul and helps you park your troubles outside the front door.

TIME TO SAVOUR YOUR MEAL

  Now it’s time to wind-down. To begin your experience a stuts-a-keno (tasting) is brought out compliments of the house followed by a basket of homemade breads and/or muffins.  Behind the bar, your eyes are drawn to a stunning acrylic of a hilltop village in Italy painted by one of the waitresses, who is an art major at the Mass College of Art. A mixture of jazz and classical music is playing in the background and the lights are slightly dimmed.

  The bistro's entree menu offers a tempting selection of lamb, chicken, veal, beef, fish and pasta dishes, inspired by the Emilia-Romagna province near Parma, Italy, where the chef trained and where he insists     you will find some of the world's best foods.  Pasta dishes are available in both sample and entrée size.

  If you are lactose-intolerant like me     the chef will cook without the dairy. The dessert menu has a dessert labeled “Lactose-Free” Boston Crème pie, which is simply scrumptious! If you have high cholesterol (and eat there on a regular basis) they guarantee that you will lower your cholesterol.  For those on the Atkins diet   there is a list in the kitchen of what can be served off their menu and how that item should be prepared.

  BOOK YOUR RESERVATION NOW AND GET FREE TRANSPORTATION

  For years it has been said that if you wanted a good meal you had to schlep into Boston and pay through the nose.  Not any longer!  This Bistro on Broadway is tucked into the first floor of an apartment house on the main drag that takes you from the Route C1 rotary toward downtown Revere.

    Just seven minutes north of the airport – a convenient place to stop before or after a flight for a relaxing meal. You must have a booked reservation – and heading to or from the airport to get complimentary car service. Could that work for you?

    The sooner you book, the better chance of getting a table. So call today.

                                                                                      Most sincerely,

                                                                                      Robin G Coles

  P.S.      Don’t miss Broadway Bistro’s supplementary brochure, “How to choose the
                appropriate wines for any meal.”

               What is true Champagne? It is a variety of wines and styles, which come from over 
                300 years of tradition. Developed in a unique environment of climate and soil particular
                to La Champagne, France, located in Northeastern France. Champagne is the result of a
                blend of 30 – 60 still wines made with grapes of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot
                Meunier, all coming from different villages and many vintages.

              There are several types of Champagne. Extra Brut, Brut, Extra Dry, Dry, demi-sec and doux. Extra Brut being the driest, and doux being quite sweet. The style one chooses depends on the type of situation, the individuals’ preferences and what is being eaten.
