Last week I took a trip up to historic Salem to check out Turner’s Seafood. When I think of Salem I think PEM and witches, so it was nice to see what else the city had to offer. Located right around the corner from the PEM, Turner’s is housed in Lyceum Hall. We grabbed a […]

I frequently go up to Maine – I hit up Freeport for the outlet shopping, Ogunquit for the lobster rolls, Portland for the views and then Kittery for more outlet shopping before coming home. I’ve been to Bob’s Clam Hut across the street and have always wanted to try Robert’s Maine Grill, but it never […]

The restaurant has a great patio and a large bar area. We went on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. We were greeted by our […]

The Clam Shack was closed, but we had fried clams on the brain and couldn’t shake it. So instead, we went where the locals go, Seafood Sam’s. We got ours to go, and picked up a few fried clam plates (of course bellies – strips would just be uncivilized). Market price out dinner at a  […]

Last year we went to Old Man and the Sea, and decided that when we came back we would try the Flying Fishbone that was located next door. The restaurant is a good distance away from the high rise hotels, a $32 taxi ride each way from Palm Beach. I love the decor here! The […]

The restaurant is part of a group that runs Eastern Standard, Island Creek Oyster Bar, The Hawthorne and the upcoming Row 34 Portsmouth, New Hampshire. My friend Conor was moving back to Texas and we wanted to […]

Monday night I attended a tequila dinner at Waban Kitchen, owned and operated by Chef Jeff Fournier. Fournier previously worked at the Linwood Grill, Locke Ober, Excelsior, The Metropolitan Club, and Sophia’s. In 1996 he opened up his first restaurant, 51 Lincoln which has won numerous awards over the years. Waban Kitchen is located right […]

On our second night in Philly we stopped over at the Oyster House for dinner, our concierge at the hotel was able to make us a reservation. There wasn’t really a place to wait for our table as the bar area was packed – they have nightly happy hour specials ($1 oysters in the bar […]

I’m meeting some old coworkers/friends at Mare for dinner. The weather on Thursday was beautiful, so it was a nice walk from my office. This place will be even better once the summer gets here and they open all the windows! The Dine Out Boston menu: $33.00 Primi 3 Oysters–chef choice and 3 Cherrystone Clams […]
