August 20, 2015 Abby Park

I used to work in Milton a lifetime ago. I love all the cute little shops and of can’t get out of the Fruit Center for anything less than $100. I was excited to visit my old hood and check out Abby Park, conveniently located on Adams Street. There’s plenty of on street parking – […]

July 21, 2015 Pomodoro

My sister in law was in town on business so we popped over to Pomodoro in Brookline Village. The restaurant is small, very intimate (it feels like a dinner party at your friend’s house) and the place is packed. The bar is the focal point of the restaurant, taking up a lot of real estate […]

July 16, 2015 La Cucina Sul Mare

We finally got the chance to head over to Main Street and try La Cucina Sul Mare, an Italian restaurant in town. The restaurant is separated into two rooms, the front room being a little noisier than the back room. It was before Memorial Day weekend, so we go it without a wait and the […]

December 16, 2014 MC Spiedo

It seems like every time Meredith and I go out to birthday dinners the weather is horrible. It’s cold and rainy tonight – and guess who forgot their umbrella! We headed over to the seaport to MC Spiedo for dinner to celebrate my belated birthday. I was surprised to find that the restaurant was located […]

December 8, 2014 Salvatore’s

After spending some time at the Boston Christmas Festival, my mom and I headed over to Salvatore’s for lunch. Salvatore’s is owned by Sal Lupoli, who you may know from his Sal’s Pizza empire. Unlike it’s more casual counterpart, Salvatore’s is a full service restaurant featuring upscale Italian food. Of course I order the Pappardelle […]

November 11, 2014 Pastoral

Pastoral opened in April of this year, the big draw being the wood fired oven. I’ve heard the space called “industrial farmhouse” which seems to be fitting. They have a great communal high top table near the kitchen, great for groups! We started off with the wood fired garlic knot ($7.50) drizzled with olive oil. […]

October 9, 2014 Sportello

I met a colleague for a business meeting at Sportello – he had never been and I was raving about Sportello, saying that he had to try the place that has my favorite bolognese. He might be a hard sell as his mom makes the best bolognese he’s ever had. Sportello is run by Executive […]

July 29, 2014 Bacco

I headed over to the North End after work to meet two of my favorite old interns who both now live in the neighborhood. They suggested that we head over to Bacco, a two story restaurant on the corner of Salem Street. The sun was shining and the windows were all open – we grabbed […]

March 25, 2014 Il Mulino at Caesar’s Palace

Il Mulino is located on the upper floor of Caesar’s Palace Forum shops. The restaurant feels like old school New York. The restaurant is a bit pricey, be aware that a soda will run you $5. There’s an interesting mix of people here tonight. As soon as we are seated, before we even get a […]
