December 6, 2015 Hash House A Go Go at Mohegan Sun

We met my cousin Ruth at Hash House a Go Go at Mohegan Sun. It’s one of the only restaurants that is open for lunch. Not quite as charming as the one we went to in California, but it was still good. The portions are enormous and they have more options for hash than you’ll […]

December 4, 2015 Select Oyster Bar

Select Oyster Bar is a great spot tucked away on Gloucester Street in the Back Bay. The restaurant is run by Michael Serpa who you may know from his days as Executive Chef at Neptune Oyster. The simple menu is a nice mix of raw bar and cooked seafood options. If you aren’t into seafood, […]

December 1, 2015 Trade

My old intern Sarah and I met up at Trade for dinner, a great place to catch up over good for. We started with the avocado ($7) that came with a mango tamarind chutney and peanuts. While I love guacamole, it can get a bit boring – so I love this dish that serves avocado […]

November 29, 2015 Kaki Lima at KO Pies

Last week was my first trip to East Boston and the shipyard, and what better incentive to go than Kaki Lima’s pop up shop at KO Pies? We went in for lunch, but after this holiday week (they are closed) they will only be doing dinner service  on Mondays and Tuesdays. I first met Chef […]

November 28, 2015 Deluxe Station Diner

The Deluxe Station Diner is located in a historic train station from 1870 that was designed by HH Richardson. The interior has this really cool Harry Potter/steampunk vibe to it. I love any place where you can get breakfast all day! And they are open 7am-9pm Sunday – Thursday and 7am-10pm Fridays and Saturdays. Leah […]

November 27, 2015 Gather

Meredith and I headed over to the Seaport to grab a bit to eat. You couldn’t have asked for a nicer afternoon/evening. We grabbed a seat on the outdoor patio. The inside decor is pretty cool, from the Edison lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling to the rustic feeling you get from all the wood on […]

November 25, 2015 Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory

Located at the pier, just under the Brooklyn Bridge, Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory is in a prime location. The day was humid and frankly hot as hell. Of course after walking around at the Brooklyn Flea we were sweating and needed something cool, so we waited in the enormous line to get an ice cream. […]

November 21, 2015 Siena Italian Grill

Siena is an Italian restaurant located in Mashpee Commons. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. Of course I ordered the bolognese. It was served with linguini and the sauce was a combination of beef and pork. The serving size for lunch was generous, but the dish was average. We also ordered the blue […]

November 20, 2015 King Street Cookies

King Street Cookies is a cute little shop, brightly painted in orange with Alice in Wonderland style chairs in the front. People are hanging out in here on their laptops, nursing a cup of coffee and cookie. There are over 30 flavors of cookies to choose from, all line up behind the glass. They offer […]

November 19, 2015 Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit

Our second stop before heading out of town is Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit. I wish we had come here for breakfast yesterday because they had delicious sounding specials – they had a breakfast sandwich with crab meat that had my mouth watering while I was waiting in line. The small shop has the specials handwritten […]
