December 14, 2017 Sumiao Hunan Kitchen

Sumiao Hunan Kitchen brings an updated version of Hunan cuisine to Boston (well, Cambridge). A group of us decided to pop over and check it out after an event one night. Best to go with a group and get a bunch of dishes to share. Love the bold decor and bright pops of color. We […]

December 12, 2017 Eli’s Natick

I had heard about Eli’s from a fellow blogger and had to check it out for myself. Located in Natick, it was an easy drive and bonus points that there is a lot out back and plenty of street parking. We have gone on the weekends and didn’t have to wait when we arrived at […]

December 8, 2017 3 Little Figs

3 Little Figs has also been on my list of ‘go to’ places for quite some time. While Leah and I were doing a little tour of Somerville, we stopped in here for breakfast on a Saturday. Packed. Jam packed actually. Line outside the door. Totally worth the wait. Leah and I grab a seat […]

December 7, 2017 7Ate9 Bakery

I can’t tell you how long 7Ate9 Bakery has been on my list. Far too long. So when Leah and I were in Somerville, I made it a point to stop in. What a cute little shop. The shop serves two sizes of cakes, a 9″ that feeds about 16-20 and a 4″ size that […]

December 6, 2017 Muffin House Cafe

What do you get for your dad for his birthday when he doesn’t want or need anything? You make the trek out to Medway (yeah, I had to look up where it is too) and pick him up some of his favorite muffins at the Muffin House Cafe. Sheldon used to have a little shop […]

November 30, 2017 Blackbird Doughnuts – Fenway

I’ve been dying to try out Blackbird Doughnuts’ ice cream doughnut. One of these days I’ll get one! Until then, I settled for stopping in to their second location in Fenway and picking up some tasty treats for a hostess gift. We picked up both the raised doughnuts and the old fashioned cake donuts. What’s […]

November 28, 2017 Manoa

I’ve been on a poke kick lately. We decided to venture over to Manoa in Somerville to try out their bowls. I have to say that this place felt the most authentic out of all the places we have been to thus far. Poke is a raw fish salad that is generally served as an […]

November 27, 2017 Davis Square Donuts and Bagels

I am always on the hunt for a new breakfast spot, and especially a new bagel spot! I had been eagerly awaiting the opening of Davis Square Donuts and Bagels ever since Leah and I went to Rosebud for lunch and I saw the sign that it was coming soon. The shop has some seats […]

November 22, 2017 Staycation at the Boston Marriott Newton

I have a confession to make. Thanksgiving is one of my least favorite holidays. I don’t even like turkey. (GASP!) So sometimes the idea of spending Thanksgiving away is very appealing. Cue the Boston Marriott Newton. A perfect place, close to home, where you don’t have to worry about making your bed or cleaning up […]

November 12, 2017 Eriksons

It has been SO cold lately – I’ve been dreaming of warmer weather. How many more days until spring? So while we wait for them to re-open for their 81st season, in April of 2018, I thought I’d give a shout out to one of my favorite ice cream spots, Erikson’s Ice Cream in Maynard. […]
