Bent’s Cookie Factory is well known among Milton residents for their delicious sandwiches and their broken cookies. Years ago, when I used to work in Milton, this place was my downfall.

Every time we head up to Vermont we stop in Hanover, NH to grab a bite to eat.  We usually stop at Lou’s but this year decided to mix it up a bit. We tried out Umpleby’s Bakery and Cafe. Owners Charles and Carolyn Umpleby opened the bakery originally in Vermont in 2000, and then […]

My coworker and I had to make a quick run down to the Boston Common. I had been telling him about this place because I figured it would be right up his alley. It had been a while since I had been here, and we jumped right in line, not realizing that you pay first […]

I have this love hate relationship with lunch. I get bored easily with lunch options, I’m usually too lazy to make my own lunch, and I don’t want to eat a dinner meal for lunch either. A few weeks ago, I had to drive my boss to the oral surgeon (Dr. Ken MacAfee-if you have […]

I think of Stonewall Kitchen as “quintessential Maine”. From the moment you drive up the driveway, you see wonderful gardens, Adirondack chairs, outside tables with umbrellas-it’s like an oasis. While they have other stores in Maine, Portland and Camden, this is their flagship store and it also houses their cooking school. (Locations are also in […]

You could go to Brookline Spa and have a different sandwich every day and not repeat the same kind for at least 2 months!!
