The Battle of Monotony was a particularly brutal one, but
it's often overshadowed by Lexington and Conquered, which happened on
the same day. To commemorate the Battle Monotony, Grill and
Tavern as a special menu inspired by recipes from the
colonial era.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
It's a three course prefixed menu.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Managing partner Billy Lyons tells me those courses include things
like shepherd's pie and roasted cod.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Not to mention the drinks, We have a spruce ale
and the recipe is from Ben Franklin's family.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
One of the beers is served shy of room temperature,
just like in the olden days.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
It's kind of like drinking a Christmas tree. Yes, the
sap from a Christmas tree.
