Dining Out Boston

In roughly twenty minutes I will standing on the Outbound Orange Line Platform at Downtown Crossing, where I undoubtedly will be very tempted to purchase a soft pretzel from the snack vendor who shares a corner space with the “African” Jewelry Salesman.

Of course, I’m ravenous, having eaten lunch nearly five hours ago, but seven stops […]

As I was walking to work today, I passed four Dunkin’ Donuts and was sorely tempted to buy my absolute favorite type of donut, vanilla coconut cake. This luscious dough ring is coated with roasted, sweetened flaked coconut that inevitably scatters over your face, hands, and lips as you bite into the rich, […]

In August of this past summer I visited a good college friend who had recently relocated to London. Among the many wonderful excursions she took me on was High Tea, an elegant, very girly affair conducted in the salon of a swanky hotel.
Since then I’ve tried to recreate the experience in my own home, […]

Bunches is having a boys night and I’m lounging at home, alternately knitting a very ugly afghan and craving CRAVING cake. We all know I’m a bake goods whore and usually will just as soon eat half a Stop&Shop sheet cake as I will a torte from Finale.
But what I really want […]

Ah, sweet Boston, how I missed you. Florida is warm but little else.
Faithful readers, this week is all about breakfast. And breakfast-related baked goods. Stay tuned.

Later, I’ll tell […]

It seems the much-awaited Dunkin’ Donuts all-day cafe restaurant will finally open, according one online dining source. The monster chain just recently finished pushing Krispy Kreme out of the Boston area, and is now reportedly giving Starbucks a run for its money in New York City.
This news is probably not very exciting to most […]

Happy Valentine’s Day to y’all. Much love to all you couples, singletons, and in-betweens out there.
I’ll be dining at Union Bar and Grille tonight and will post a full report tomorrow. If you are dining out tonight, feel free to write in about your experiences. Remember, just because you’re in love doesn’t […]

Thank you for not being too offended by the title?
It’s 1:42pm and my stomch is rumbling because I’m waiting to have lunch with Bunches who is on his way back from office hours. For whatever reason, I’m really craving Mexican food; visions of chimichangas and burritos and nachos and flautas are dancing in my head. […]
