December 15, 2014 Lee’s Burger Place

I love a good burger, so I was excited to see that Lee’s Burger Place was taking over the old Naked Pizza space on Beacon Street in Coolidge Corner. The interior is stark, harsh white light and not much in the way of decor – no matter, I was here for takeout. They have a […]

July 7, 2014 Mr Sushi

Mr Sushi is located on Harvard Street in Coolidge Corner. Even though they are a Japanese restaurant, they have some delicious Korean options. The restaurant is very casual and almost all the menu items are under $20. We start with the gyoza ($6) that we have pan fried. The meat and veggie dumplings do not […]

Located in the financial district, Siam Bistro offers authentic Thai cuisine. We grabbed takeout – ordered through GrubHub, and it was ready by the time we got there. Bulgoki: A very famous Korean beef dish with sliced onions, mushrooms, sesame seed and scallion in sweet soy bulgoki sauce. The meat didn’t look like beef, it […]

February 4, 2014 Thai’s Bistro

So my two coworkers and I are standing in line waiting to order lunch. We order and someone calls out, “Next”. The guy behind us looks at us, as if to say, “is that you?”, to which I say that we are all set. He then says, “oh, I wasn’t ready…I’m not sure what to […]

The juice bar is located in a tiny corner of the Back Bay train station. They squeeze all their juice fresh – you watch them behind the counter, and they blend your smoothies to order. If you go at peak lunch time, be prepared to wait in a line out the door. I held out […]
