I'm thinking of going here with ~12 people for a birthday dinner. Am I crazy? Will we fit?
Never been to the Caribbean - where should I go?
Thanks everyone! I was just toying with the SXM AND AXA idea myself! I'll let you know how it goes! Can't wait!
Never been to the Caribbean - where should I go?
My BF and I have never been to the Caribbean, but we've decided to go after seeing many shows about the amazing local seafood available in the islands. We're not ones to spend the day sunning on the beach, but we love to explore little local eateries and drinkeries and enjoy the scenery. It seems that the consensus on the boards is to go to either St. Martin or St. Bart's for the best food experience. Any opinions either way, or alternative suggestions?
Thanks!
Mussels in Cambrigde/Brookline area
Though I haven't had it in awhile, I recall the Fireplace in Brookline (Washington St. and Beacon) having a good mussel appetizer. Convenient for your location too.
Atasca, Portugalia, O Cantinho, or Casa Portugal?
Here's the scoop: I'm a native of the SouthCoast area (New Bedford) and would like to have some tasty potuguese food on Friday without the commute... Which of the four restaurants gets your vote? I'd like to bring about a party of 6 with me, if that changes things... Thanks!
Best Duck dishes in the Boston area?
Well, we ended up ordering the Peking duck at King Fung garden. It was our first time trying that dish, and I think we'd concur with many posters that the first course of crispy skin/hoisin/pancakes was by far the winner. The stirfry and soup courses were tasty, but incomparable to the crispy skin! Now I think we'll need to try some of the other suggestions, especially interesting seems to be the tea-smoked duck ones! My mouth is already watering! Thanks again all!
Best Duck dishes in the Boston area?
Thank you all! I'm sorry I hadn't seen the other duck post, its a gem!
Best Duck dishes in the Boston area?
My SO's birthday is coming up, and he's been egging me on to find a good restaurant that serves a notable duck dish. He's had duck before, but has never been wowed. Somehow he's convinced he should like it, so the question is: What restaurant in the area would you reccommend to go to be wowed by duck? Small, large, cheap, expensive all welcome, but we're not big on fancy (jackets, no jeans).
Opinions needed - Visitors from England looking for restaurant suggestions
Thanks everyone! This really helped me identify some cuisines I hadn't thought of being unique to Englanders! I'm sure with all these reccomendations they'll have plenty of choices and a great Boston experience!
Opinions needed - Visitors from England looking for restaurant suggestions
My friend's parents are coming over from Sheffield, England this week and will be staying for a month! I've been asked to provide some good restaurant suggestions with this as guidance: "likes all food so everyting is fair game particularly stuff that they are unlikely to get in England". I figured I should go to the experts on chowhound for this one. What would you suggest?
