12/10/10 Lavender

I must say, I really do love Lavender. I hope they survive, and I say that because every time we are in there for lunch (I can’t attest to their dinner crowd), it is pretty quiet, we are usually the only table (or there may be one or two other tables but that’s it). As […]

12/10/10 Sals Pizza

We stopped in for late night pizza one night after the movies-it was dead inside. The woman at the counter said that they have a huge lunch crowd (ie. BU students) and then it dies down at night. So we grab three slices, yes my friends, the picture above is 3 slices (one slice is […]

12/10/10 Za Pizza

My friend Katie told me about this place, although she went to the one in Arlington (check out her website-she is a yoga instructor, and a massage therapist who specializes in zero balancing http://balancingbodywork.com/ or http://longevityyoga.com/). We always talk about food and she told me that there was this mac and cheese pizza that I […]

07/10/10 Ivy Fine Cakes

Our friends got married this summer and they got their cake at Ivy’s. I thought they sounded familiar-but I had never been to Canton or Braintree for cakes. When I walked in the door I remembered that I had seen them featured on the Phantom Gourmet-they have a replica cake that they made for them […]

06/10/10 Sportello

Sportello is another one of those places that has been on my list for quite some time. My birthday was coming up..and what better way to spend it than with good friends at a Barbara Lynch restaurant. The night was cold and rainy-thank goodness for the valet out front ($16).  Note that Menton, Barbara Lynch’s […]

04/10/10 Panzano

Located in Southborough, Panzano is an upscale specialty market that sells fine Italian goods. We went there to pick up some lunch at their prepared food counter and also some staples for later. We went on a Thursday around 11am and it was packed! (but maybe this was due to the fact that their Buywithme.com […]

01/10/10 Cuttys Pork Sandwich Saturdays

I reviewed Cuttys back in March http://dgrubs.wordpress.com/2010/03/10/cuttys/. I had been meaning to try their pork sandwich, which they only serve on Saturdays, but the timing has just never been right. Until last weekend…. What made me remember I wanted to go there, was a tweet they sent out, linking to a facebook photo of them […]
