March 29, 2016 Dumpling Palace

Leah and I decided to grab lunch at Dumpling Palace one afternoon. Located on Mass Ave, parking can be dicey at times – best to try and take public transportation there! The fun part about this place is that there’s a little window and you can look in on the chef making the dumplings by […]

February 18, 2016 Shake Shack

A couple of friends and I met up at Shake Shack in Chestnut Hill to check out their new chicken sandwich. The “chick’n shack” ($6.95) is 100% all natural cage free chicken served on a non GMO bun.  It’s crisped up and served with lettuce, pickles and a buttermilk herb mayo. Mayo isn’t my thing, […]

February 3, 2016 Sweetgreen

January was going to be all about catching up on posts from December…but then life happened, and I got that weird cold/cough that lingers for what feels like months thing…and all productivity went out the window. So, by now you probably know that SweetGreen has opened up in the Prudential, right near the Sheraton entrance […]

January 19, 2016 Freshii

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 […]

December 20, 2015 Nordstrom ebar

The ebar is located on the first floor of the mall, attached to the entrance of Nordstrom’s. It’s a specialty coffee shop (similar to Starbucks) where you can grab a cold drink and a snack. There are tables in the mall area, just outside the restaurant, where you can sit and enjoy your coffee. Not feeling […]

December 18, 2015 Live Noodles

I’m a sucker for noodles and dumplings, so when Live Noodles came in right down the street, I was dying to try them out. They serve traditional hand pulled noodles with authentic soup. From their website: Lanzhou beef lamian, or Lanzhou beef hand-pulled noodle, is a type of Chinese noodle dish originated in Lanzhou, China, […]

December 12, 2015 Red Bowl

On a recent trip to North Carolina to visit my niece of her birthday, we did a lot of eating out. Not the kinds of places that I would necessarily go to, but then again, sometimes you are at the mercy of your host, you go where they like to eat. The first night we […]

December 8, 2015 WUBurger

One night, while I was browsing my Instagram feed, I saw Hungry Tommy’s picture of WuBurger. When we were looking for a place to grab dinner a couple of nights later, we decided to check it out. The restaurant is outfitted with retro booths and had plenty of seating. In addition to burgers they have a […]

November 1, 2015 Hong Kong

It’s hard to find good Chinese on the Cape. Our neighbors at home get takeout from the Hong Kong all the time and suggested that we try it out. Located right on the main road, this little restaurant does a huge takeout business. Be prepared to wait – even if you call in your order. […]

Pret has a new line called the “Power Lunch”, consisting of 4 choices: Egg and Veggie, Roasted Beets and Feta, Roasted Parsnip and Pistachios, and Southwestern Chicken and Avocado. Super bummed out […]
