Tanglewood’s Food Services operations will be operated by The Patina Restaurant Group - April 30, 2007
Tanglewood’s Food Services operations will be operated by The Patina Restaurant Group beginning with the upcoming 2007 summer season. Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, is located in Lenox, Massachusetts in the picturesque Berkshire Hills. The Patina Restaurant Group (www.patinagroup.com) is the nation’s leading multi-concept operator in the premium segments of the restaurant and food service industry.
Patina will cater the casual dining services of the Tanglewood Café and Tanglewood Grille, the concessions located throughout the grounds, and will provide gourmet picnic baskets, boxed three-course meals, and seasonal sandwiches in a bag offered to concertgoers to enjoy before and during concerts on the spacious grounds surrounding the open-air concert halls. Patina will also cater the two Supper Clubs, Seranak, and Highwood, with occasional visiting chefs from New York and Los Angeles.
“We selected Nick Valenti and Joachim Splichal as our Operating Partners at Tanglewood because they have reinvented how premium food service is provided at places like Lincoln Center, the Los Angeles Music Center, and the Hollywood Bowl. They understand our customers, standards, and culture,” said Kim Noltemy, Director of Sales, Marketing, and Communications for the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
“We are thrilled to be associated with an organization of the caliber of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. We look forward to working with Tanglewood additionally because it is consistent with our strategy of providing dining at the country’s premier performance venues,” said Nick Valenti, President and CEO of The Patina Restaurant Group.
“Tanglewood’s reputation for offering music in a setting as beautiful as the notes played will inspire our menus,” added Joachim Splichal, Chef and Founder of the Patina Group. “We look forward to developing truly outstanding dining experiences for visitors to Tanglewood.”
Tanglewood kicks off its 2007 season on July 6 with BSO Music Director James Levine leading the Boston Symphony Orchestra in Mendelssohn’s Overture and Incidental Music to A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4. In addition to the July 4 concert, this summer’s popular offerings include Boston Pops Conductor Keith Lockhart leading Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Carousel (July 10) and an all-Gershwin program (August 26), John Williams leading the Pops in Film Night at Tanglewood (August 25), and James Taylor’s acclaimed “One Man Band” show (August 24).
Tickets for the 2007 Tanglewood season can be purchased online at www.tanglewood.org and through SymphonyCharge at 888-266-1200.
