Truffles as Aphrodisiac?
Valentine's Day Truffle Dinner
Catalyst Restaurant
300 Technology Square, Cambridge

The ancients, and notably 19th century man-about-Parisian-bistro Brillat-Savarin, found a path from truffles to eros.
An age-old saying warned against them:
"Those who wish to live virtuous lives should abstain from truffles."
This February 14th, you can test that proposition in a dinner of many virtues, not least among them Chef William Koval's sensual infusion of truffles into each dish. Abstinence will be absent, however. The wines will be as intriguing as the flavors they complement.
You are invited to join Catalyst Restaurant in celebration of Valentine's Day with this decadent black truffle dinner.
