We love Pera Mediterranean so we were happy to hear about their new Boundless BBQ menu, which was previously only offered around July 4th.

Last year's meze that we enjoyed
Last year, Caryn and I were invited to try out Pera, and we absolutely loved it. I’m happy to report that the restaurant’s meze deal is back. This May, you can enjoy 3 mezes (think 3 appetizers) for $9. Some of our favorites last year included [...]

Caryn (thoughts are in italics) and I headed over to Pera for the “May Meze Madness” on Thursday. For $9, we were able to sample 3 different appetizers each. We sat at the bar and sipped on some recommended cocktails. I tried the pomegranate martini and found it to be pretty good [...]
