There was a great turnout and I had the chance to meet some really cool bloggers. Check out Karenly Nieves’ blog, Forever, Karenly and Elizabeth’s blog, […]

December 31, 2014 Solas

Mark, Bekka and I popped over to Solas for a drink one night. This cozy Irish bar is located right off of the lobby of the Lenox hotel. There are murals and celtic knots all around the bar, along with a Guinness poster or two. The space is warm and cozy, there’s a great fireplace […]

December 27, 2014 The Breslin at the Ace Hotel

On my last day in New York we decided to head out to the Ace Hotel for breakfast at the Breslin. The wait was about 45 minutes, so we make our way out to the lobby to grab a cup of coffee at Stumptown coffee. It’s hard to find a seat in the lobby, as […]

December 22, 2014 Cafe de Boston

  I had been to Cafe de Boston last year (see my previous review here) but barely recognized it when I went back last week. I honestly thought this was a different location. In my holiday induced (overwhelmed) haze, I had come in a different entrance and the place looked so much bigger and brighter. […]

After heading over to Tuscan Kitchen for a media dinner in October, I headed back to get some of those delicious desserts that I had my eyes on in the display case! I loved this lemon tiramisu – something a little different! The market has a wide variety of Italian pastries to choose from. Another […]

December 15, 2014 Lee’s Burger Place

I love a good burger, so I was excited to see that Lee’s Burger Place was taking over the old Naked Pizza space on Beacon Street in Coolidge Corner. The interior is stark, harsh white light and not much in the way of decor – no matter, I was here for takeout. They have a […]

They have over a half a dozen sandwiches to choose from and if you still can’t find something you like, you can design your own. In addition to sandwiches, Cheeseboy offers breakfast sandwiches and sweets […]
