Home Away from Home

Bolete Opens

Inviting people over for dinner? Your forte. Figuring out what to do next? Not so much.

So take them to newly opened Bolete. It’s dining in a home away from home.

Literally: The restaurant is housed in a 200-year-old inn where chef Lee Chizmar and general manager Erin Shea live upstairs.

The small 45-seat dining room has a wood floor, a fireplace, and a delicious menu. Choose from potato-crusted crab cake with artichokes, king oyster mushrooms, and a lemon-pepper aioli for starters, then dive into the house-smoked pork chop with a crisp potato cake, heirloom apples, and an apple rosemary puree. Or sit at the original bar that dates from the late 1800s and enjoy a turkey sandwich to die for: roasted turkey on a knot roll with oyster stuffing, cranberry sauce, and sage aioli.

The homemade butterscotch pudding is the perfect way to end any meal.

Not having to clean up your kitchen is a close second.


Bolete, 1740 Seidersville Road, Bethlehem (610-868-6505 or boleterestaurant.com).
