March 27, 2014 Olives and Grace – Sweet Lydia’s, Liddabit, Apotheker’s

I stopped in to Olives and Grace on Christmas Eve (I’m catching up on posts!), I was doing some last minute shopping and figured I could pick up some stocking stuffers. Check out “The King candy bar” from Liddabit Sweets. Never heard of Liddabit? They are a small company based out of Brooklyn, and the […]

Come casual or fancy – just have fun, bring your own sense of style, and prepare to brighten the room with your presence. The party was located in the back room at the […]

September 5, 2013 Boston Chops

We spent a Tuesday night celebrating one of my good friend’s (belated) birthday. The restaurant was fairly empty for most of our meal. To start you off, they bring you a popover in a measuring cup. Love the playful presentation. The waiter reads us the specials for the night and proceeds to tell us that […]

June 27, 2013 Cinquecentro

Cinquecentro took over the old space that Rocca once occupied. Located in the South End, at 500 Harrison Street, Cinquecentro translates into 500 in Italian. Here’s why this is one of the best spots in the South End, it has a huge free parking lot next door. Everything here is bold and makes a statement, […]

June 11, 2013 Olives & Grace: A Curtsy to the Makers

One of my co-workers wanted to stop by this store in the south end for some sriracha he had been trying to hunt down for some time. We decide to take a little field trip at lunch – glad we did. Olives and Grace is a cute little shop tucked away on a side street. […]

April 24, 2013 BoMa

Last week my sister in law and I went out for a bite to eat at BoMa in the South End. Right on Washington Street, the restaurant has large windows in the front that let in tons of light. We sat at a high top table near the front, which was ok early in the […]

November 26, 2012 Coppa

Coppa has been on my to try list since it opened, in 2009 (how embarrassing!). I finally made it there for my birthday, and let me tell you, it was worth the wait. It was an unusually warm fall night-so there were people eating at tables outside when we got there. We had 6:30 reservations […]

October 13, 2010 Myers and Chang

So when I think of the south end, I think hip, trendy, expensive. I think that what makes Myers and Chang ‘hip’ are the people who go there to eat, not the place itself. The outside is pretty darn modern, the whole front wall is glass with images of their logo and a big red […]

June 30, 2010 Tremont 647

Stop in on the weekend for the pajama brunch (offered on Saturday and Sunday)…but go early because it fills up quickly. On nice days you can sit outside on the patio but the day I went-it was humid with scattered thunderstorms. There are only about 60 seats in the restaurant. I have to say that […]
