BLACK TRUMPET STIMULUS PACKAGE
Our BT Stimulus Package has proven to be a great success! It's been called the "best value for the best food in town", and "an excellent and reasonable excuse to dine out". The Stimiulus Package is a $19, three-course dinner served every Sunday through Thursday. We will continue to offer it until the economy gets itself back together.
The menu changes every night but will always include a soup/salad, light entree and dessert. As always, it will be done with true Black Trumpet style: exceptional, local ingredients, Evan's unique use of spice and flavor, and everything - and we mean everything! - made completely in house to create the ultimate comfort food. The Black Trumpet Stimulus Package should make it a little easier for you to slip out for a tasty bite without worrying about your wallet.
We will run the Stimulus Package through the end of June.
