What/how to order at Marco
Hey, hounds. Am planning a trip to Marco next week and looking for chow favorites. I have heard that the risotto is very good.
I am also looking for an ordering strategy for my girlfriend and I. Our usual traditional Italian approach is 2 antipasti, 2 pastas, and share 1 secondi. I'm not sure if that is too much food at Marco. Also the antipasti do not look great.
Thanks!
Drink opening tomorrow?
Thank you, Guinness02122. I'll try to stop in for a drink tomorrow or Friday and will report back.
Drink opening tomorrow?
I can't find a phone number or web site for Drink.
Does anyone know the exact address? I'd love to stop in tomorrow or Friday, but don't want to spend all evening roaming the neighborhood. :-)
Mozzarella di Bufala in Boston
A Boston based food blog recently did an article on mozarella di bufala in general and around Boston. Very good.

The article talks about places to buy it and local producers.
B&G Oysters Questions, Please!
Planning on going to B&G next week for dinner and have a couple questions:
- Inside or patio? Can we sit on the patio without reservations? Is it nice if its late and the sun is down? Its hard to tell from these boards if the patio is more of a casual scene, or suitable for a nice dinner.
- Any recommendations on what to order?
- I am new to oysters and a raw bar. This is a lame question, but I do not know how to order oysters. I have slowly taken to them, but never done the raw bar thing where you order and eat a bunch of them in bulk. Do not laugh! If we want oysters, do people tend to order them as an app or main course or whatever you want? I have absolutely no idea how many to order. Any pointers here are appreciated.
Thank you,
Frank
