You might miss Bottega di Capri if you didn’t know where to look. This unassuming little restaurant is one of Brookline’s best kept secrets. They have delicious Italian food and more types of pasta dishes than you’ll know what to do with. You could come here for a month straight, order something new every time, […]

The restaurant features small plates and freshly made pasta (by Stephanie Cmar!!). We chose to sit at the bar, which is great for people watching and it gives […]

So for the time being, the only Italian flight I’m experiencing is the pasta flight at Terramia. I loved the restaurant, it was cozy and inviting. While they have been recognized with […]

It has been a long time since I’ve had a night out, so what better way to spend it than with friends in the North End. We ventured out to Artú, a family owned and operated restaurant located on Prince Street. We shared plates to get a little taste of everything. The restaurant was cozy, […]

Sure, you know Mike’s and you know Modern, but do you know about Bova’s Bakery in the North End? It’s a little off the beaten path compared to the other two but it is equally as delicious. Bova’s has been family owned and operated since 1932 – they make delicious desserts and fresh breads. Not […]

I love Italian food. I was excited when Leah and I had the opportunity to check out La Motta in the South End. The restaurant comes to you from the same folks that run Aquitaine, Cinquecento, Gaslight and Metropolis. I love the decor here: the warm lighting, the tin ceilings, the high back banquets, the […]

I had been wanting to try Babbo for some time, but wanted to wait for the hype to die down before heading in. The restaurant, that is located in Boston’s Seaport District, opened in April and has been serving up Mario Batali’s Italian cuisine to locals and tourists alike. The restaurant is enormous, with over […]
