Help with my itinerary
I will be in Boston for a Friday-Sunday in June, staying at Hotel Commonwealth and need some suggestions or help with my food itinerary. I have two dinners and my thoughts are Cragie on Maine, No. 9 Park, or L'Espalier. Which two would you pick, or is there something out there better. We are also planning on having Sunday brunch at Mistral, but I am open if there are better options. What are a couple must eat lunch and snack spots? Any help is much appreciated.
Itinerary for our honeymoon in SF/Napa. Thoughts?
Just my two cents, but we spent 10 days in Napa/SF for our honeymoon a couple of months ago and ate at a few of the places on your list. While the French Laundry was good, it was not mind blowing. The best thing was the oyster and pearls. Salad course was very blah as well as one of the meat courses. Everything else was really good, but not great. My husband thought Gary Danko had the best entree of the trip (the whole meal was phenomenal). We also love Quince and REDD was also fantastic. Keep in mind that like you FL was also on our bucket list and we are glad we went, but have no desires to go back.
Best place for Dim Sum? {also Sushi, San Francisco]
Thanks, we are vacationers and will be eating there next Thursday or Friday afternoon.
Best place for Dim Sum? {also Sushi, San Francisco]
Is one location better then the other?
Bakeries
That place looks awesome. Do you know of any bakeries in walking distance from the Ritz Carlton?
Dim Sum
What is the best dim sum in the city? We will be staying at the Ritz Carlton and will not have a car. We would like the best quality food, served cart style. The restaurant we are leaning towards is Yank Sing? As far as food quality are there any better.
Thanks
Breakfast in between Scottsdale and Sedona?
I am looking for a good breakfast spot on a Sunday in between Scottsdale and Sedona? Also if you could recommend a good place to eat dinner in Sedona Sunday night. Thanks
Oyster Po'Boys
Which po'boy shop has the best oyster po'boy? We usually go to parkway, but unfortunately they are not on the menu anymore.
Thanks
Lilette or La Boca?
I can always eat a steak, just want to eat at which ever place is better. Thank you for all the replies so far.
Lilette or La Boca?
Trying to decide between Lilette of La Boca for our friday night dinner. The rest of our weekend lineup includes Stella's and Le Foret. Which one would you choose?

Where to go vs. where to repeat?
I concur, I had a fabulous dinner at Mila on a uncrowded weeknight. No crowd and extra attention, what's not to like.
One More Dinner
My trip is almost complete, I have one more dinner spot to fill. I am deciding between Le Petite Grocery, Clancy's, and Cuvee. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks Again

Cuvee Restaurant

3 Days & 2 nights in NOLA...too many choices too little time
I have never been to Cuvee, but always hit up Stella's when we are in time. Stella's is our favorite restaurant in Nola!

Mila
It does not bother us if a restaurant is empty, we are not much into crowds. We are staying at the Roosevelt. We will not have a car, we will purchase a bus/street car pass for our duration. Any other suggestions for a Sunday dinner? I know a lot of places are closed. Thanks again for all the help!

Oyster Po'Boy
I need some help, Parkway is always a must for oyster po'boys. They are not on the menu for now. Besides Parkway, who has the best oyster po'boy. Thanks
Bill Hunt
I follow you on the New Orleans board so I trust in your food knowledge. I need a few recs for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I will be staying at Four Seasons Troon. Give me your best, I only have 3 full days. Thanks
Thanksgiving
I was thinking of coming to New Orleans for Thanksgiving, good idea or bad? Are there good thanksgiving dinners in town and our most of the restaurants open the friday after. Any help would be great. Thanks
If you had 2-3 days in New Orleans to pack in the most amazing meals possible...
I would do Stella! for my special dinner. Saturday I would go to either Elizabeth's for brunch or Domenica for lunch. Sunday I would do Commander's for brunch, request the garden room.

If we can only afford one "high-end" spot on our trip, WHICH?
+1 for Stella's. The last three times I have been to August has been OK. Some of the dishes well executed others not so much. Overall Stella's has the best dining experience in NOLA, in my opinion.
Perfection at 610 Magnolia
Last Thursday had a fabulous experience at 610 Magnolia. First off the restaurant called us earlier in the day and asked if it would be possible to change our reservations to the following night, because we no one else would be dining with them this evening. Unfortunately we were not able to change our reservations because we were flying out early the next day. Instead of telling us sorry about your luck, they graciously advised they would open for just us, incredible customer service. When we arrived we were the only guests in the restaurant, what a beautiful space it was. After we were seated the chef/owner came over to our table to introduce himself to us. He asked if we wanted to pick something to eat, or if it would be okay if he cooked for us. We agreed to have him cook for us, he asked if we had any food allergies and then was off to the kitchen. All I can say is incredible, quite possibly one of if not the best meals we have ever ate. The chef made different entrees, salads, and desserts for both my boyfriend and I. The first and second courses were the same and we had an incredible cheese plate. My boyfriend opted for the wine pairing with his meal and was quite pleased with the selections. Mindy our server did an exceptional job taking care of us as well. It was an extremely incredible romantic evening that will not be forgotten.
