Kaki Lima Boston is a wife and husband team (Retno and Pete) on a mission to introduce Indonesian cuisine to a wider audience. And on July 24 we are continuing our 'Best of Boston' pop up restaurant series at Tavern Road in Boston's Fort Point neighborhood.
Retno uses only the freshest and most authentic Indonesian ingredients and techniques. This is Indonesian food as it should be. You can read more about Retno here. And you can read what people are saying about her cooking here.
Sunday's dinner will be an epic multi-course meal. The first course will be served promptly at 6 p.m. Please be a little early! Beer, wine, cocktails and other drinks will be sold separately by Tavern Road. Limited seating is available and these events typically sell out really fast. So get your tickets right away if you want a seat.
Also, due to the nature of the event, we will not be able to accommodate allergies and other dietary restrictions (sorry!). Be aware that shrimp paste, tree nuts and peanuts are used in a lot of Indonesian cooking.
Any questions please email us at peter@kakilimaboston.com.
