trying to remember a pizza place
There was one in Union Square as well I recall.
What do people think of Rendezvous in Central Square, Cambridge?
Say it ain't so Steve-that being said, I tip my hat to one of the nicest and hardest working people in the restaurant business.
Hunt for the Best Calzone
Armando's on Huron Ave in Cambridge- with extra sauce on the side.
Best "classic" martini
or using a good rye with a clearly inferior sweet vermouth
most missed recent closing?
I would add Sun's cafe in North Cambridge. Their eclectic Korean/Japanese/Thai menu was delicious and the owners were the salt of the earth. I think about them wheneverI pass that strip of stores near Pemberton market.
Sad breakup @ Micucci's
Say it ain't so!

Portland and Beaches for 1 Week in July - Where to go
Made a day trip from Boston to my first Sea Dog game this past Saturday- prior to the game visited Standard baking Co., Micucci's (4 Luna breads for the ride home) and the PMA and then it was off to Eventide for shucked oysters,oyster buns and a local brew. Following the game, had to make it to Boda, based on MCM's & Bobbert's previous raves. I sat at the bar and imbibed and indulged and I must tell you -I enjoyed that immensely- and the Miang Kum Som-oh-- the one bite shrimp and toasted coconut tapas that sits atop a betel leaf- is absolutely destination worthy- an opening salvo to an absolutely delightful meal! What a way to end the day in Portland.
Italian with 15 minutes of BC
La Morra in Brookline, Delfino's in Roslindale
Portland - want to try something new
+1 on Eventide. Have had some nice meals at Caiola's- their excellent cannelloni is worth checking out.
The Best Veal Parm Around
Delfino's in Roslindale.
Portland Trip Can't Miss Dish Suggestions - Researched
It is the same bread that Steve uses to make those sicilian slabs.
I might also add the roasted mussels from Fore Street and Pai Men Miyake's omakase to the list. BTW- I am also a big fan of Pai Men's pork buns and much of the delicious pastry from Standard Bakery... but that Luna bread...oh my!... is something else!
Bobbert is clearly one of your town's culinary cognescenti! Eventide's fried oyster buns are truly delectable and habit forming. Thank goodness I live in Boston! Bresca's shaved brussel sprouts and braised Tuscan kale dishes not to mention the buttermilk panna cotta should not be missed. I'd also like to give a nod to Caiola's house made cannelloni stuffed with ricotta ,sweet pepper,parmesan and spinach. Lastly, whenever I visit your fine town, I purchase at least 3 loaves of Micucci"s Luna bread to bring home and freeze.
Overrated restaurants
Scutra in Arlington. A local fav for some. Don't get it.
Taipei Gourmet, Lexington
Not a fan of cilantro. Is the soup redolent of it or does it merely adorn its top?
Yet another Rendezvous shout-out
The lasagna, Sunday night specials, ambiance and bar just " pulls me back in".
Servers' familiar behaviour
Curious on how to respond to that all too frequent server's query " are you done working on that?" Any suggestions?
BYOB in Portland
I third the Shulte and Herr recommendation. The food hearty and satisfying,goes well with a Belgian beer. I also find the entire staff kind and interested in their patrons. Its worth my trip from Boston!
Soft shell crab sightings?
Had them@ Traif . It was on their brunch menu. Absolutely delicious!
Best lobster roll thats not 30 bucks
Choate Bridge Pub--Ipswich Center
5 Nights in Ogunquit - Here are my picks
I would add Schulte & Herr in Portland for delicious German comfort food and incredibly friendly service.
