Betty’s Lunch – Cheap Eats for Under $20, and Even Under $10
Betty’s Wok & Noodle, highly regarded for its innovative food and exotic sake cocktails before and after the shows at Symphony Hall, Huntington Theatre and the New England Conservatory announces a fresh, brand new and downright cheap expanded line-up for lunch. “Where else can you go for a three course meal, made to order, fast, delicious and for under $20. You can actually have a great lunch for even under $10” says Junior Portal, chef at Betty’s.
Betty’s has earned critical and popular praise for its Asian-Latino cuisine, offering something for everyone - from home-made broth to salads, rice and noodle specials, vegetarian dishes, pressed sandwiches and decadent desserts. The new lunch menu features two dozen sparkling fresh Asian-Latino dishes.
“We’ve created a menu that is guaranteed to be fast, economic and delicious” explains Portal. “Of course I love everything on the menu, but one of my favorites is the Pressed Sandwich. It’s a great meal. And you still have room for my Quesillo” he says with a twinkle in his eye. All of Betty’s lunch specials are made-to-order and include a bottomless glass of soda, iced tea or lemonade.
