December 13, 2016 Saloniki

Saloniki had been on my list of places to try since it opened. The lines this summer were out the door and down the block! So I waited until recently to check it out. I’m kicking myself that I waited so long because just check out what I had been missing out on. The restaurant is […]

November 28, 2016 Welcome to Boston Eataly!

I was fortunate to be invited to the media preview of Eataly that will be opening tomorrow, November 29th! I wasn’t sure what to expect, I have been to the Eataly in the flatiron district in New York, but there has been a lot of skepticism going around about this location. I was pleasantly surprised […]

Tiger Mama is Tiffani Faison’s newest restaurant in the Fenway/Kenmore area, just steps from her other restaurant, Sweet Cheeks.

March 24, 2016 McDonald’s at Fairsted

Talk about being behind – this was from back in December!! When I think of McDonald’s I have childhood memories of my mom taking me there for dinner. We would drive through the drive through and then eat in the car, a special Monday night treat while my dad was working…even though sometimes it was […]

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 […]

March 26, 2015 Good Ones: T @ Trade

Last week, entrepreneurs and business professionals met at Trade in the Financial District for an afternoon with the #Good Ones. The event had endless coffee and tea, tasty treats, homemade cookies, stonefire flatbreads, and wonderful coconut cake (center) with toasted almonds and passion fruit sauce. The event was a modern take on high tea – […]

November 17, 2014 Momofuku Milk Bar

While we were waiting for our table at Momofuku Noodle Bar, we decided to take a walk over to the Milk Bar a few blocks away. Dessert before dinner? You bet. So we try the cereal milk shake which was tasty, not quite as sweet as I thought it would taste – more like cornflakes, […]
