Let Top of the Hub Do The Cooking On Christmas Eve

Four Course Prix-Fixe Menu Celebrates The Season

With the Boston skyline sparkling against a silent winter's night, Top of the Hub will serve a special Christmas Eve Menu designed by Executive Chef Mark Porcaro.

Accompanied by spectacular views from the 52nd floor of the Prudential Tower, the four course prix-fixe holiday menu is priced at $85 per person ($35 for children under 12), exclusive of tax, beverage and gratuity, and will be served from 4 to 10 p.m. on Monday, December 24.  Advance credit card reservations are available by calling 617-536-1775 or visiting www.OpenTable.com.

The restaurant's traditional Lunch Menu will be served in the Dining Room from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve.  The Lounge will also welcome guests with a menu of lighter fare from 2:30 p.m. to 10 p.m.  Live jazz entertainment in the Lounge will be provided by The Marty Ballou Trio from 6 to 10 p.m.

Raphael Oliver, General Manager at Top of the Hub, commented, “As you gather with friends and family this Christmas Eve, why not allow our culinary team to do the cooking?  Let your holiday begin with a relaxing meal served against panoramic views of Boston in the distance.  Adding to the atmosphere, we'll have The Marty Ballou Trio playing in our Lounge."
