May 17, 2011 Vapiano

I saw Vapiano featured on Chronicle. It’s this “new way to dine”. Order what you want from stations where they make your order fresh, right in front of you and then tap your card on the sensor. The card records the things that you ordered and on your way out, you pay the tab. It […]

Grilled Cheese….it’s so in right now. Enter Cheeseboy-located in South Station. Made to order, using fresh ingredients.  The menu is pretty simple and straight forward, 4 choices of bread, 5 choices of cheese, and a handful of meat and veggie options.

When I was a kid, my parents always used to stop at Santarpio’s for pizza on the way home from the airport. Located in East Boston, they only accept cash, but if you visit their other location in  Peabody, you can pay with a credit card. East Boston offers take-out, but only for pizzas. Everyone […]

February 17, 2011 Hotel Chocolat

The cesar-delicate chocolate cup piped full of praline textured with caramelised nut pieces (3 chocolates per serving/ 237 calories per serving). I really liked this piece, smooth and creamy with added crunch from the hazelnuts- a really nice flavor. The H box. What’s inside. The brownie-our version of the classic bake: pecan paste, chocolate and […]
