    Review: Amatos

    Jason made an offer I couldn’t refuse and took me to Amato’s to give them a review. What I found was a something so good, I’m surprised it hasn’t moved out of San Jose.

    Review: Boca Grande

    I spotted a taqueria I’d never seen before when I went to pick up Jen from work. I had to find out if it was up to snuff or if it was the same crappy tex-mex shit that normally passes for Mexican food here in Boston.

    Ok. So I was on vacation for a while so that’s one reason I haven’t added much new content lately. The other reason is that I’ve been thus far unable to find a solution to my digital camera issues. The site will suck unless I have pictures, and right now I don’t have a digital…

    Field Trip: Hot Dog Safari

    We were introduced to the Hot Dog Safari by the Phantom Gourmet. They said it was a hot dog festival for charity that included all-you-can eat hot dogs, ice cream, and lots more. It turns out it’s a Boston tradition for the last 17 years. We just had to be there.

    Chez Moi: Fruits de Mer au Riz

    There was a crazy sale on huge shrimp at Whole Foods so I did what I know best with them. When I was growing up we ate paella like this all the time. This recipe isn’t exactly paella, but it’s very similar in flavor and is easy to do on a weeknight. You can throw…

  • Review: Tremont 647

    May 31st, 2006

    After singing for the Lord at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross in the South End, Jen and I decided to try to get some brunch somewhere we could eat outside and enjoy the sunshine. We had no idea that we would find THE place for brunch just a short walk away at Tremont 647.

  • Review: Garden Of Eden

    May 27th, 2006

    Jen and I were in the South End, where I’d just gotten out of work.  We weren’t sure where to go for a late dinner, so we walked down Tremont looking for somewhere we could eat outside. We found the Garden of Eden, a small bistro focused on fresh ingredients. All the flavor of fresh…
