May 28, 2015 Seafood Sam’s

The Clam Shack was closed, but we had fried clams on the brain and couldn’t shake it. So instead, we went where the locals go, Seafood Sam’s. We got ours to go, and picked up a few fried clam plates (of course bellies – strips would just be uncivilized). Market price out dinner at a  […]

March 11, 2015 Dumpling Daughter

Dumpling Daughter opened in November to rave reviews by the Globe. The restaurant is the brain child of Nadia Liu Spellman, Weston native and Babson College graduate. The restaurant is small, it only has about 30 seats – but they also do takeout! Bonus is that you can BYOB and they don’t charge you a […]

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. […]

August 1, 2014 The Clam Shack

On a recent trip to Kennebunkport, Maine, we stayed at Hidden Pond. Saturday was grey and it was drizzling, but we didn’t let that stop us from exploring the town. This was outside one of the restaurants! We stopped into The Clam Shack just before it got slammed with the lunch rush. They serve everything […]

July 24, 2014 Tossed

Mark had some Level Up cash at Tossed, so we ventured over there for lunch. While they are known for their salads, they also have wraps, paninis, soups and artisanal sandwiches. They  have a bunch of salads to choose from on the menu, but I choose to make my own. I think this is where […]

June 18, 2014 Shan-a-Punjab

Shan-a-Punjab is located on Harvard Street in a former gas station. The last time I was here, it was B.Good. I never made it to Cognac Bistro, even though I really meant to get there. Indian music videos play on the tv behind the bar. We start off with some delicious flatbread crisps that have […]

June 6, 2014 Brookline Spa

It has been a long winter, and we have been waiting a long time for the Brookline Spa to complete its renovation. The old space was run down, but it had a certain charm to it. The inside now has a whole new updated look. Check out their menu here. They are now open at […]

May 27, 2014 Sa Pa

Sa Pa opened in Cleveland Circle on May 19th, just around the corner from Cityside. The Cleveland Circle location is the second Boston area restaurant for Sa Pa, the other location is in Downtown Crossing at 92 Bedford Street near Kingston Station (which is also owned by Ky Nguyen). This location also features the same […]

May 19, 2014 Commonwealth

Chef Nookie Postal was at the New England Food Expo and ever since then, he has been all over my radar. Commonwealth, located in Kendall Square, is a market – restaurant hybrid. You can go in for a family style meal and pick up a gallon of milk on your way out. They sell fresh […]

May 13, 2014 Federal Donuts

  Federal Donuts was right around the corner from the hotel, and while we didn’t have time to stop in to taste the chicken, we did however try the donuts. Hot and Fresh are available any time: $1.25 each, $6 for half dozen, $20 a dozen in vanilla spice, cinnamon brown sugar and strawberry lavender. […]
