Recipes, Restaurant Reviews, and Travel
When searching for the best sushi around Boston, three names kept popping up: O Ya, Oishii, and Oga's (in Natick). After watching a wonderful documentary called, Jiro Dreams of Sushi, about the world's greatest sushi chef, I became obsessed with trying truly high quality sushi. Unfortunately, such sushi is costly and far more expensive than... Continue Reading →
Everyone loves a good sausage and Chez Pascal has some good sausages. The name might throw you off into thinking that this is some puffed up self-important French restaurant, but it isn't. The main restaurant is very nice, but inside they have a section called the "Wurst Kitchen." My friends and I ate there to... Continue Reading →
This past Valentine's Day, I went to dinner at Bergamot in Somerville, MA with two friends and my girlfriend on the day before Valentine's Day to beat the rush. I picked the restaurant because it had pretty good reviews and someone recommended it to me although I can't remember who it was. Nonetheless, before we... Continue Reading →

Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted rows of shiny silver... Continue Reading →
As an anniversary present, my girlfriend gifted me a trip to historic Salem, MA and a one night stay in the Hawthorne Hotel. We spent less than 24 hours there, but we saw a lot of what Salem has to offer on the off-season (i.e. not Halloween). A few of the highlights included seeing a... Continue Reading →
Great breakfasts are hard to find, which is strange when you consider that most people don't set the bar very high for what they're looking for in a breakfast. Most of us that go out for breakfast just want something hot that isn't too greasy or soggy if it's savory or something that isn't too... Continue Reading →
A couple of months ago, I attended a wedding in Brooklyn, New York. Coincidentally, this was the same weekend that hurricane Sandy hit the east coast, but we managed to leave NY before it got really bad. That little nugget of information is only tangentially related and didn't really affect my stay, but I do... Continue Reading →
