There are not any food trucks where we live. Well, maybe one, but the allure of it is taken away when you have to drive to it, park and then get out and order, eat and get back in your car. It is much more enticing to be walking along the city streets and […]
Restaurants, Events & Locations
Mike & Patty’s Bay Village, Boston
We had driven into Boston for Restaurant Week (blog to follow)…and along the way found this eclectic and tiny breakfast spot in Bay Village. We should say that we did a ton of Googling to find the perfect breakfast spot. We were staying in Back Bay and wanted something close by so we could […]
cafe ADAM Great Barrington, Massachusetts
Since our arrival in The Berkshires this past spring we have heard a lot of chatter about cafe ADAM in Great Barrington. Five months later we finally made our way there. Arriving around 6:30 on a Wednesday night we were not expecting it to be busy, and in fact when we first […]
Our Night at Wheatleigh
Yesterday was our third wedding anniversary. Beginning with our wedding dinner at the chef’s table at L’Espalier in Boston, we have decided to continue the tradition of eating out on our special night year after year. Last night we had dinner in the dining room at Wheatleigh in Lenox, Massachusetts. Our night began […]
Brava Lenox, Massachusetts
Don’t let the unassuming store front fool you…we have found our favorite stop in downtown Lenox, Massachusetts, and have already been back for a second visit. Brava wine and tapas bar is located at 27 Housatonic Street and is a true find. We like sitting at the bar and trying out different wines […]
A Picnic at Tanglewood
Tanglewood Music Festival is in Lenox, Massachusetts. It is celebrating its 75th year. Tonight was opening night with an all Beethoven program performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. While we’ve sat in the shed before, we opted to sit out on the lawn tonight to enjoy our picnic snacks. We had already […]
Rubiner’s Cheesemongers & Grocers Great Barrington, Massachusetts
We had the great luck of ending up in Great Barrington yesterday. So rare to have an afternoon together, yet we managed one, and so immediately set off on a drive through The Berkshires here in Massachusetts. We parked the car and noticed a tiny farmer’s market set up on the steps of […]
Vinh Chau’s Pho with Rare Flank Steak
Quite a few years back before we were married I had a roommate who came to this boring little city from San Francisco. Needless to say, it must have been a bit of a culture (less) shock for him. He managed to find a fabulous “hole in the wall” sort of place for […]
