Spatchcock baked chicken (Peruvian style) with roasted root vegetables and bag salad.

A couple of Trader Joe’s peanut butter cups for dessert.

Went a year or so ago and stayed at the Hermitage. We were able to walk most places. Great staff and accommodations.

Our favorite meal was at Skull’s Rainbow Room in Printer’s Alley watching live jazz music.

If you’re there on Sunday evening and like bluegrass, The Station Inn does a good open mic.

Just got back from a trip that included Boston. Man, what a city. We got to catch a game at Fenway during their 15 game win streak. Place was electric.

So impressed with how clean the city was and how accommodating all the locals were. Weather was near perfect for this time of year.

Stayed near the Copley place and learned to use the “T” to get around which was by far the easiest (and cheapest) way to get around the city.

Dinner’s (all highly recommended) were Saltie Girl, Capri and Abe & Louie’s. Lunch was Krasi and an old Italian deli in the North End.

Best overall meal was Saltie Girl. Best Dish was the Red Snapper Bourdeto at Krasi (Friday Summer Lunch Menu). Service everywhere was top notch.

Can’t wait to get back one day.

Delta lounge at Boston Logan airport doesn’t start serving alcohol until 10 a.m. on Sundays. FML.

Maybe a Boston thing. IDK.

I just got in town today with the family. Staying in the back Bay Area near the Copley Place. Walked around and tried to get my bearings this afternoon.

Got a late reservation at Capri in a few minutes.

Tomorrow is Krasi lunch, Fenway then an another late reservation at Saltie Girl.

Saturday morning a food tour of the Northend. No other plans as of yet. Harbor cruise on Saturday if weather will allow.

Because she kinda is..

I put my money on Noskova +120.

ESPN’s coverage is insufferable. The Brit’s do a much better job calling a match imho.
So the lights are hitting the “Decline-O-Meter” thereby creating a “Clear night”.

Used Balls (RIP) recipe and smoked a pastrami after a nine day brine.

Fried oysters, pot of peas, chicken strips, French fries, Mac and cheese, and hot dogs.

Bunch of teenagers to feed.

Happy Independence Day, all.

Kim, spent three years in the 70808 (Hood Ave.) and loved the neighborhood. It was our first house as a married couple. Was actually there from 2004-2007, so got to experience the area pre-Katrina.

Skipped the FBD and went straight to vodka waters.

Anyhoo, I’ve been curious for some time what does “HFFTF” stand for? Inquiring minds want to know.

TIA
I don’t know. Bugonia looks to be be right up my alley. Guess that will potentially be my 3 for 3.
Just watched. Excellent movie. I haven’t watched a movie straight through in years.

Watched Rental Family yesterday. Two for two after quite the hiatus.

If I were King of the world, Lyn Rollins and Ben McDonald would call every LSU baseball television broadcast in perpetuity.
You’re the man, Otis! Shrimp casserole, bag salad, Brookshire’s baguette.

Chuck, headed back next week for the Charleston Open clay event. Any restaurants open since last July that I should put on the itinerary?

Got a res at Halls and will be going back to 167 raw/bar.
