Chef Chris Parsons to Open the Oyster Club in Boston’s Park Plaza - Eater Boston
"Chris Parsons of Catch and Parsons Table acclaim will open a new restaurant in Boston’s Heritage on the Garden building, taking over the space most recently occupied by Doretta Taverna and Raw Bar. The Oyster Club (79 Park Plaza) could debut between May and June 2019, in time for patio season, Parsons told Eater. Parsons describes his menu at the Oyster Club as 'regional American seafood' anchored by a raw bar, with oysters figuring prominently. 'It will be our spin on regional classics,' said Parsons. The bar program will feature crisp whites and roses, French whites, various pinot noirs, and craft beers and cocktails. Parsons also told Eater the menu will feature Sheppy’s Cider, a 200-year-old cider brand from the United Kingdom. Regarding the space itself — which will have seating for 180 indoors and an additional 70 on the patio — Parsons is aware of its rich culinary history. Along with grilled fish and raw bar staples, Parsons plans on doing a 'lobster of the day' to highlight one of New England’s most beloved ingredients." - Terrence Doyle
