On Friday evenings, from February to mid-May, the Beyeler Restaurant im Park will be open until 10 p.m. to welcome guests with a special menu, featuring a wide range of vegetarian and vegan offerings. A particular highlight of the imaginative Friday offering is a selection of brightly colored tubes filled with delicious pastes and dips for guests to assemble a palette of flavors and mix their own selection of artistic nibbles to accompany an early evening drink. The dishes, with a contemporary twist, can be creatively combined as a light snack or a full evening meal, to be enjoyed in the relaxed atmosphere of the museum restaurant.
