Spring at The Bristol Lounge at Four Seasons Hotel Boston - Introducing all new Spring Menus

Spring has sprung at The Bristol Lounge at Four Seasons Hotel Boston. Executive Chef Brooke Vosika’s all new Spring Menu is bursting with flavour and colour, and incorporates the freshest local produce. The result? Crave-worthy dishes that dazzle the taste buds – and are as refreshingly brilliant as the season itself.

Among The Bristol Lounge's new hit dishes: Lunch starts with golden tomato gazpacho with Maine lobster; or watermelon salad with Greek yogurt sorbet, feta, mint and olive oil. Afterward, guests can dig into savoury sandwiches including and ahi tuna sandwich or short rib reuben. For seafood lovers, lemon sole is perfectly light and delicious.

For Dinner, diners will love grilled octopus and poached asparagus salad, followed by Monica’s homemade pastas including gorgeous blue crab agnolitti or green garlic gnocchi with spring vegetables. Or, adventurous diners can venture to East for the soon-to-be hit dish nasi goreng with fried rice, shrimp, scallops and house made sambol chili.

Dessert is always sweet with Executive Pastry Chef Tim Fonseca’s coconut mascarpone cheesecake with passion fruit poached pineapple; or heavenly fluffernutter with peanut butter mousse, toasted meringue and banana cake pop.

Beverage Director Ben Sweeney’s Spring Cocktail Menu features craft cocktails to please every palate. A glimpse at some of the new favourites:
  • Local: Italian Ice with bully boy white whiskey from Boston, limoncello, housemade lemon shrub
  • Fruity: Prickly Pear Margarita with Herradura Silver, prickly pear, Cointreau, lime, jalapeno sal
  • Fizzy: Honey n' Bubbles with prosecco, grapefruit and honey syrup
  • Aromatic: Cucumber Lavender Sour with Crop Cucumber vodka, ginger, lemon, lavender bitters
Beer lovers may prefer to sip one of The Bristol Lounge’s local draught beers. Or better yet, order the Beer Flights to try three brews at once.
