We hadn't been to the adorable Visible Voice Books in Tremont prior to the pandemic, but when they started offering a Create-Your-Own-Night package that provided a private 90 minutes of browsing the book store, one large two-topping pizza from Crust (located just below), and a bottle of wine for just $50...we knew it was the perfect pandemic date night that we needed.
We had such a wonderful time in November that we immediately booked a second date for March. They are full about two months out, but have since added a weekend Brunch and Browse option as well with pastries from nearby Leavened, coffee and two mimosas per person, and 100 minutes of the store to yourself for just $40 (for two, $15 each for additional guests).
In addition to checking out the "local" section of the store, we spent quite a bit of time in the
Cooking section. If you've been following along on my Instagram for my adventures in learning how to cook, a lot of the recipes I've been using since December have been from
Alison Roman's Nothing Fancy.
Highly recommend! Then we settled in for our pepperoni, mushroom, and diced garlic pizza.
Yes, we travel with our own
Mike's Hot Honey.
You also have access to ordering anything additional from Crust or
Proof BBQ, so we couldn't resist trying the
Pork Belly Steamed Buns ($9).
They needed more pickled items for brightness and crunch, but overall were tasty.
The private bookings have been successful for them, so they are considering keeping them post-pandemic.
My vote is YES! This is totally something we'd love to do even in a "normal" world again. But in case we don't have the chance, book your own now before they are gone.
