August 4, 2018 Volturno

Volturno has a cult following in Worcester, so I was excited to hear that they were coming to Framingham. Located right off Route 9 on Edgell Road, this Neopolitan pizza restaurant feels very spacious. Their pizzas are airy and have a bit of a chew to them, along with a nice char. We started off […]

April 7, 2018 Da Vinci Bistro

Growing up in the area as a kid, I have memories of spending my high school days with my friends at Friendly’s. The service was always horribly slow, but it was a place to go and hangout with friends or to celebrate after a sporting event. When Da Vinci Bistro moved into the former Friendly’s […]

January 2, 2018 Paul’s Pizza

If you’re a Falmouth native – you’re either a team Paul’s Pizza or a team Steve’s pizza. It’s Cape Cod’s own New Haven style rivalry. I happen to like Paul’s but Steve’s might be just a little more convenient for me to pick up… Paul’s Pizza has been in business for over 50 years, still owned […]

August 9, 2017 29 Sudbury

I recently went to the opening of Whole Foods in Sudbury, and afterwards, a few of my friends and I stopped in to 29 Sudbury for dinner. A cute little spot with a great bar, two floors of dining, and a lovely little outdoor patio for when the weather is nice! We had a spacious […]

March 10, 2017 Monica’s Mercato

I was at the Boston Public Market a few weeks ago and parked in a nearby lot where an attendant parks your car for you. When I got back to my car, I noticed that the attendant backed my car into a pole. So I when I went back to settle up with the parking […]

February 16, 2017 Brunch at Il Casale

It feels like I haven’t had Sunday brunch with friends in forever! I was glad to head out to il Casale in Belmont for a day out with some great ladies that I haven’t seen in some time. Our meal started off with these delicious chocolate biscotti, dipped in chocolate. How could chocolate dipped in […]

February 11, 2017 Benedetto

Located in the old Rialto space, Benedetto is the new Italian restaurant from the team that brought you Giulia. The space is lovely and my favorite part was the pasta table in the back. By day they make fresh pasta on it and by night it is set for large dinner parties. I was at […]

January 26, 2017 Osteria Nino

It wasn’t quite outdoor patio weather, but pretty cool to check out the pizza oven at Osteria Nino in Burlington. I hadn’t visited Burlington in quite some time, so it was nice to see how many new restaurants and shops have popped up. Osteria Nino is pretty convenient to get to, it’s right off the […]
