19/09/13 B Street

We returned to B Street for brunch. I had seen the breakfast flatbread ($14) on the menu and had to try it. Sunny side up eggs on a flat bread with bacon, sharp cheddar and roasted garlic. Really delicious and lovely to look at! Surprisingly easy to eat as the eggs were less runny than […]

18/09/13 Juice Bar

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 […]

17/09/13 Red Lantern

My parents came into town and took us out to dinner. They offered up PF Changs, and I countered with Red Lantern. Still Chinese, but a more grown up feel – PF Changs feels very chain-like to me, with mediocre service, and most of the time it’s pretty dirty there – those lettuce wraps can […]

16/09/13 Bill’s Pizzeria

We stopped by Bill’s on a Thursday night. The place was busy but not full. There were a lot of young couples, high school kids after sports practice, and young families. Bill’s is a casual place, order at the counter, grab a seat in their dining area and they call you when you’re ready. We […]

16/09/13 Food Truck Festival – Natick

I had read several blog posts about food truck festivals in the city, how people said you should get there early because the lines are so long and the food runs out…that being said, I figured a festival outside of the city wouldn’t be as crowded. I bought tickets online ahead of time, but you […]

13/09/13 New York in September

We decided to take a trip to NYC to visit my grandfather a little early for his 102nd birthday. Look who thought he was coming with us! So up at 3:30am and at the Back Bay train station by 5am to be in NYC at 9 in time to work in our NY office for […]

12/09/13 Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House

It was a friend’s birthday – he loves steak, so the natural choice was to try out Del Frisco’s by the water. The weather was perfect and we snagged a seat by the window, taking advantage of the great view. We arrived early and there were only a few tables sat, but they still asked […]

11/09/13 Drink

Located downstairs from Sportello, Drink is Barabara Lynch’s craft cocktail spot. People outside waiting in the hallway with us seem frustrated that they have to wait 15 minutes. I chuckle and think to myself, you should see this place on the weekend! The bar is pretty sparse, relying on the exposed brick, the bar and […]

10/09/13 A Ride with Boston Pedicab

For our summer company outing we spend the morning getting sweaty running around Back Bay doing a photo scavenger hunt. My team, team blue, won! Afterwards, we all jumped into pedicabs to the seaport for lunch. Getting all the pedicabs together was a site to be seen on Stuart Street! All the drivers were super […]

09/09/13 Barcelona

Met a fabulous friend for drinks and tapas at Barcelona. We were planning on sitting outside on the patio, but it is getting dark so early these days. We grab a seat at the bar. There’s an interesting crowd here – two ladies who look like they may be trying a little too hard to […]
