Aposto Offers Two Weekly Prix Fixe Menus
It's great to see that some things haven't changed. Aposto, which serves fresh, weekly menu items, is offering two prix
fixe dinners (each serves two for $60) for carryout from 4 to 7 p.m. today and tomorrow, or as supplies last. Orders must be placed by 4 p.m. on the day of pickup.
Fresh this week: Calabrian chili-glazed pork cheeks, complete with chickpeas and vegetables. Rounding out the
three-course meal are the summer salad and a flourless chocolate torte for dessert (peanut butter mousse, cherries, port reduction and mint). That's in addition to the holdover dinner option from last week, headlined by the stuffed prosciutto chicken, with potatoes and vegetables. Add-ons are available, including red and white wine ($22 per bottle), garden vegetable crostinis ($10) and Italian wedding cake ($8). Email events@apostodsm to reserve your dinner. Order is not final until you receive a confirmation from the general manager.
