30/11/10 Cakes

My friend Kim makes some pretty darn good cakes. She doesn’t have a storefront-she bakes them out of her house. She is a talented artist and graphic designer-she does this as a side gig. I thought I would feature some of my favorite cakes that she has made for me over the years. Above is […]

30/11/10 Moonstones

I had been introduced to Moonstones about a year ago by a friend of mine. We met there for dinner on a weekday night-pretty crowded for a place in Chelmsford. I went back with a group on a Sunday afternoon, and it was empty except for another private party. When you walk in the front […]

22/11/10 Osushi

This is my second time here. What can I say, I love the Groupons! I’m pretty sure there should be a Groupon anonymous suport group. The first time I went for dinner and this time we went for lunch. Ironically we sat at the same table both times. Located on the second floor, the big […]

22/11/10 Oishii

Located in the South End, across the street from Myers and Chang is Oishii. If you don’t know where it is, you might very well drive past it. I had heard my friend talk about it for months now, so I decided we would go together and I could finally see what all the fuss […]

22/11/10 Basta Pasta

We went here on a Friday night-trying to use a buywithme coupon. Unfortunately, so was half of Cambridge. Something should have tipped me off when I called to place my take out order and got a busy signal for about 10 minutes…and when I finally got through I was told it was going to be […]

22/11/10 Cabot’s Ice Cream

Cabot’s has been around for over 40 years. I remember going here as a kid for an ice cream birthday party and having so much fun. I recently went back for a light lunch, but who am I kidding, I really went there for the ice cream. It is pretty crowded for a late lunch […]

22/11/10 Treat Cupcake Bar

I went back for my second trip to Treat Cupcakes the other day. There were a bunch of people hanging out inside around lunchtime. I picked up 4 cupcakes @ $3.25 each. Pictured above is the triple chocolate-chocolate cake with white chocolate filling and chocolate frosting. The plain jane, chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Simple […]

22/11/10 Pumpkin Pudding

http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/pumpkin-pudding/ I saw this recipe years ago in the Rachael Ray show. I made it, brought it to Thanksgiving dinner and it was an instant success. Some of the other guests who were there were serious bakers, and they asked for the recipe! When I first made the recipe I had never had pumpkin pie, […]

22/11/10 Stone Hearth Pizza

I’m not a huge fan of thin crust pizza in general, but I do love Stone Hearth Pizza. Their pizzas have great flavor, they use the freshest ingredients, and they try to use local ingredients whenever they can. The dine in service can, at times, be slow. So I ordered take out for lunch the […]

18/11/10 Anthonys Pier 4

In its heyday, Anthony’s Pier 4 was the place to see and be seen. Hundreds of famous people came here for the upscale dining experience. Their faces, and the face of the founder, Anthony Athanas (who passed in 2005) are immortalized in the pictures on the wall. Athanas was an Albanian immigrant that came to […]
