Sweet Basil in Needham
My friend Kate and I had dinner at Sweet Basil recently since my hubby is away in CA at a conference. My daughter came with us but she slept in her car seat all night! We started with some authentic village bread and a pesto/butter spread. The vibe inside is cozy and rasta-like, pretty funky […]

The Back Eddy
So were all set to go to a place called Marguerite’s but they gave our table away (even though we had reservations, what the?) so I made the call to my fav place in Westport - The Back Eddy - and they sat us in like 30 min!
We have been here many times […] -

Loco Tapas in S. Easton, MA
05.13.07 | Permalink | 2 CommentsLoco Tapas just opened up 6 months ago and we LOVED it. The owner owns “crazy chefs caterers” and visited Barcelona and the Basque wine country in summer of 2006 and decided to open up this restaurant!

StoneForge in Foxboro, MA
This place was a very very nice surprise! We were hungry, it was 6:15pm on a Sat, and all the OPs were out and about. The valet parking guy said the wait was 30-45 min at the StoneForge in Foxboro, but when we got inside we were told 1 hr, 20 min. We grudgingly decided […]

Chiara Bistro - Westwood, MA
Check out the 3-course prix fixe menu that we enjoyed on Sun, Aug 20, 2006 with my in-laws and close friends of ours. The majority did the wine-pairing, which made this an incredible bargain. My fav was the wild mussel chowder, yummy - light not too heavy on the cream. plentiful and tender mussels, plus […]

View from Phusion Grille - Woods Hole, MA
Phusion Grille is a great contemporary/eclectic mix restaurant at Woods Hole, MA - right on the water. We enjoyed a lobster bisque and the tuna sushi over fried wontons for apps. For entrees, Scott got the lamb loin special, and I enjoyed a 1.5 pound lobster in a spicy asian coconut sauce, YUM!

Bricco
Ah, Bricco is another great meal in the North End. We can’t wait to see what will happen once all the gardens are planted! I ate at Bricco 5 years ago and was not that impressed. There is a new (3rd?) chef now and she is Marisa Iocco (sp?). Wow, I got the zucchini blossoms […]

the only way to unwind is the dream and to travelabout
Greetings fellow travelers and foodies! This blog captures all the wonderful journeys I have made so far in my life, before I met my husband and also in the 10+ years I have been with my husband and now baby girl. The earth is a beautiful place and I would like to keep it this way. Traveling is so good for your soul, opening up your eyes to the different people and cultures of this planet but also to realize that we are all still very alike and all want the same things in the end.recent
