A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

A lifestyle blog with a focus on my food adventures

imag0814Julia and I met in Cambridge for an event and headed over to State Park afterwards for dinner. State Park is a new restaurant opened by the team behind Hungry Mother. State Park is a drastic contrast to the more upscale Hungry Mother, just around the corner – some might even consider it a dive bar. You walk into a dark room filled with dark wood paneling, a pinball machine, a pool table and a jukebox. There is a greenhouse room off to the side and picnic tables outside. All tables are seat yourself.

imag1367The service was a bit slow and we couldn’t figure out who our server was for most of our meal, but that was ok – we were busy catching up. We started with the fried cheese curds served with ranch dressing and bbq marinara. Pretty darn delicious.

imag1369I had the Memphis bbq spaghetti with garlic bread ($11) which had a bit of a bite to it. The garlic bread was lightly toasted and had a generous amount of garlic – YUM!

imag1368Julia had the catfish plate with greens and hush puppies.  She loved the hush puppies and the catfish, but wasn’t impressed with the sauce on the greens.

Great place to go with friends, hang out and drink beers. Food wise, I think I’ll stick with Hungry Mother.
