I started off the New Year with a healthy meal – by accident. I headed over to the Freshii in the Back Bay, located just at the corner of Dartmouth and Stuart, next to the Starbucks. Everything these days can be custom made, why shouldn’t your meal be that way too? Of course they have […]

Parkside Market is a cute little place right on Main Street in Falmouth. They offer breakfast all day and lunch until 4pm. There are cafe tables inside and a few tables outside on the sidewalk. Parkside has a nice assortment of sandwiches and lighter options if you’re just planning on stopping in for coffee and […]

After eating Bruegger’s three days in a row, I needed a real breakfast. We went to Brigs at the Crossing. When we arrived, there were a lot of old timers eating breakfast – they serve it all day, 7am to 2:30pm. I had the Western omelette with ham, onion, peppers and swiss cheese (instead of […]

Portland might be one of my favorite places, not only for the views and the shops, but for the amount of delicious restaurants packed into a small area. It’s so hard to choose where to go each time, but this time we opted to check out the Honey Paw. It’s the sister restaurant to Hugo’s […]

Located next door to Husk is Poogan’s Porch. We ate lunch here the third day of our trip. Where does the name come from? The Victorian house was built in 1888, and in 1976 the then owners sold the house and moved away, leaving their dog, Poogan. The dog served as the official greeter at his […]

I met Caroline for lunch mid week – we laughed as I said, “So this is what it feels like to be a lady of leisure”….not quite. Brio at lunch time was pretty quiet and the clientele was of an older crowd, a much older crowd. The restaurant is part of the new Chestnut Hill […]

We had a guest in from out of town and we decided to spend the day walking around the Public Garden and Beacon Hill. Before we headed over there, we stopped at Post 390 for lunch. I started off with a Cranberry lime rickey ($5.50) that was tart, but I wish that the cranberry flavor […]

Come in, they’re open….and as an added bonus, The Breakfast Club has a parking lot!! Earlier this week I attended an event that was rescheduled from earlier in the month (who’s tired of all this snow!!). The theme for this event was Valentine’s Day! I was in good company, Bianca from Confessions of a Chocoholic, […]

Caffe Nero is the newest coffee shop to hit the scene. The European based chain opened it’s first location by the Loews movie theater in Downtown Crossing. They have an extensive drink menu – serving premium Italian espresso. Customers order in line and then find a seat in either a booth, the long communal table, […]
