Fall colors, pumpkin flavors and crisp air are just a few reasons why we think October is the best month of the year. Before hectic holiday schedules kick-in, come visit us at SHK for a little R&R in the form of mouthwatering food and cocktail specials, a new live music schedule and more.
DANGEROUSLY DELICIOUS
If you love spicy cocktails and tequila is your poison, say hello to The Devil’s Nest, this month’s cocktail special created by our innovative bar team just in time for Halloween. The Devil’s Nest might sound evil but the flavors are angelic, featuring sweet ingredients like passion fruit puree, lime juice and a dash of grenadine. Staying true to its name, it also packs some fiery flavors with muddled jalapenos that are shaken with tequila. Chile “horns” as a garnish bring it to life.
PUMPKIN HAPPINESS
There’s no denying our love for pumpkin and we’re bringing back a new rendition of last year’s popular Sweet Pumpkin Cakes; this time around, these treats are with red bean filling and pressed with one of our favorite Chinese symbols meaning “happiness.”
NOTE-WORTHY NOODLES
We’re bringing our obsession with Wheat Noodles to the next level this month by adding new toppings for you to choose from: Grandma’s Pork or Pickled Bean.
Noodle lovers, rejoice.
SUMIAO SOUNDS
Every Thursday and Friday, join us for live music by Berklee School of Music alums taking center stage at Sumiao to bring revelers one of the most unique live music experiences in Cambridge, all to be enjoyed while sharing in traditional Hunanense food and drink with modern twists.

Last month, WHERE Magazine asked a group of Boston influencers about their current snack obsessions and our friend, Matt Simko, personality behind @SimkoSays, gave us a shout-out & it’s only right to return the favor! Here’s what he had to say:
“Cool crispy cucumbers with spicy sesame chili oil sauce and a dash of vinegar at Sumiao Hunan Kitchen in Kendall Square are the perfect spicy snack. To cool down a little, pair it with their Perpetual Motion orange, elderflower, and mint cocktail.”
