Overheard on the Boston Board

"I took home the leftover lobster mac 'n' cheese and the next day put about '5 cents of Ritz cracker crumb topping' on it, along with some salted butter, and stuck it under the broiler to crisp the topping. Could you believe, it was so darn good I almost fell off my chair." – hounda on how to improve leftovers from The Local

"For great shave ice try Frio Rico, made with fruit juice and fresh fruit. I also enjoy their empanadas and tamales and they have some nice baked goods and desserts." – judej on Frio Rico in East Boston

"Since the new people took over a few years ago, I can't tell you a better sandwich shop in Boston. Try anything Italian, but start with the prosciutto and fresh mozzarella." – King Leo on Croissant du Jour, a good option for a cheap lunch in Back Bay
