At the Bachelor Farmer, chef Paul Berglund and his crew prepare a different three-course Sunday supper each week — the menu is posted a day in advance on the restaurant's website — consisting of a starter, a family-style entree (with vegetarian options available) and dessert, priced in the $29-$34 per-person range.

Muffuletta chef Matt Ellison keeps his Sunday dinner guests happy by preparing a design-your-own three-course dinner, with two or three creative options for appetizers, entrees and desserts. Cost is $24.95 per person.

On Sunday evenings at Nightingale, chef Carrie McCabe-Johnston turns her kitchen over to two of her colleagues — sous chefs Dan Berger and Adam Murphy — and they create a different three-course, $35 dinner menu each week. "They're constantly trying to one-up each other," she said.
