Many moons ago, I sang the praises of a restaurant and ice cream shop in Hudson, MA, that offered everything from amazing pizzas to an authentic speakeasy (complete with a secret password!) to incredible ice cream…and MORE! Since last we lauded, a lot has been happening, so I wanted to catch you all up and […]
By now, I have gone on and on about Valentine’s Day and chocolate and realize that it may be getting a little fattening even to listen to. Still, there is one of our favorite makers that deserves yet another mention- RED Chocolate. As the first (or at least best) no-sugar-added, palm oil-free, non-GMO chocolate, RED
During the recent Royal visit to Boston, many people wondered about who the Royals were wearing, where they were staying, with whom were they meeting, etc. Perhaps not as many pay attention to what they were eating. If this were the case, they would have missed out a one of our region’s greatest delicacies –
I have long been a fan of Farm Grill in Newton and its sister store, the Greek International Market in Boston. The only problem I have with them is that, no matter what I try when I visit either place, there is always something new and amazing that I have not tried before, so I
It’s Chanukah again and that can mean only one thing on Matt’s Meals- a mention of our favorite shmearing shamash- Steve Peljovich! I know that we talk about Steve a ton, but when your food is so good and you do so much good for the community, you deserve all the support you can get
As my fans know, I love chocolate! At this time of year in particular, however, there is certainly such a thing as too much of a good thing (no matter how good it may be)! That is why I am so grateful to have found a company called KLEIO who offer a sweet gift that is perfect
As so many people in the world seem to be more interested in dissention and division than unity these days, it is more important than ever for those who are so inclined (which is hopefully most of us!) to come together, especially in this season of giving and spiritual renewal. And what better means of
A few months ago, I thanked the gods of food that the Donut Villa Diner had doubled in size from its original location in Malden to a new spot in Cambridge. Apparently, the gods heard me because the donut-forward eatery recently added a third Villa in Newton! And while the donuts are among the best
Now that we are (hopefully) visiting others for the holidays it is time once again to get gifts for them all! As usual, our friends at Boston Public Market have everything we (and everyone we know) could ask for…and more! From gifts to groceries and treats to trimming, BPM makes holiday prep easy. And not
While Chanukah may be a favorite for the younger set, I have always been a fan of Passover. Though I have long enjoyed the family time, in recent years, my yearning for the Exodus has been enhanced by the annual arrival of my mother-in-law’s amazing meringues! Black Sheep CBD meringues combine all-natural, responsibly-sourced, soy-, gluten-,
