Boston's Best: Appleton Bakery and Cafe


While Boston's South End is chock full of sandwich/bakery/cafes, Appleton Bakery is one of its hidden gems. Tucked away on the corners of Dartmouth and Appleton Streets, the smell of freshly baked cookies and bread permeates the South End from brownstones to cobblestones. The decor is casual, intimate, and quirky all at the same time. A small "store" contains treats from France and Italy, as well ...

The Best Mac & Cheese in the City


I realize mac & cheese can be a very hot button issue, but for my money the best mac & cheese in town can be found at Silvertone Bar & Grille located downtown on Bromfield Street.  The restaurant itself is tiny and always crowded, but hey, it's crowded for a reason, right?

Silvertone has a vintage lounge feel, and the fact that it is slightly underground only serves to add to its ...

Burdick

When you’re in Harvard Square looking for a pick-me-up, a stop at Burdick’s Chocolate at 52-D Brattle Street--the best continental patisserie and chocolate bar this side of Vienna—is the ticket.

The E Room at Golden Temple


E room could stand for enormous, electronic or eager.  With an uber-attentive staff, pulsing mood lighting, drunken dancers, and satisfying american-style chinese food, an evening here is anything but dull. This past Thursday, a large party took up the back row seating and I dined alongside  the dance floor with several other couples.  This is a common date spot. In the lounge side of Golden Temple, called the E room, the techno-dance ...

Durgin Park – Hearty food, Yankee Charm



Durgin Park at Quincy MarketDurgin Park, that most Bostonian of eateries, centrally located in Quincy Market, has been the favorite of U.S. presidents, visitors, Harvard professors and native Bostonians alike since 1827. It’s “Where your grandfather and great-grandfather dined,” as the slogan goes.

The upstairs dining room with the trademark bare lightbulbs, checkered tablecloths and boarding house-style tables are part ...

The Upper Crust-Authentic Neapolitan Pizzas in Boston


The popularity of pizzas in the USA dates back to the end of World War II, when soldiers brought back this delicacy from Italy. The popularity of this food can be seen by the sheer number of pizzerias in most cities and towns. ‘The Upper Crust' is one such restaurant, founded by Jordan Tobins about five years ago in the Beacon Hill area of Boston. There are now several ‘Upper ...
