Boston, ah, so that’s where you are. Can you get me Red Sox tickets?
Welcome, hard to beat the North End for cheap good eats.
There’s a tapas place on Newbury St. that’s good–I can never remember the name, though. Enjoy Boston, and more snow this week too!
It sounds like you’re having a lovely, lovely time. I did a love list last Friday — lots of fun links.
Take him right the hell out. I suggest Lala Rokh. Persian cuisine in Beacon Hill. Absolutely tremendous.

I know I might be in the minority over this, but I don’t care as I say: Cook for your man on his birthday!!! We are big fans of pasta in this house to me home made bolognese sauce is always a loving dish. Epicurious has a great recipe:

Coupled with high grade pasta and a great Pinot, what could be better?!
Hmmm. I live in Boston (and have since 2002), so I thought I’d offer my favorites…
The tapas place is called Tapeo; it’s at 268 Newbury Street (between Fairfield and Gloucester Streets, near the Prudential Center mall.) It’s super cute, easy to find and get to, has fun drinks (cachaca!), and isn’t too expensive or crowded this time of year.
I like Tangierino in Charlestown. (Cab it, trust me on this). It’s Morrocan food. And they have belly dancers that are really quite good. It’s fancy, different, and a lot of fun for a special occassion. It’s a “dressy casual” kind of place – you cutest jeans and girly shoes, and you’ll be good to go.
And the North End is easy. ANY place you walk into will be good. (I haven’t eaten at all of them yet, but I’m getting there!)
Good luck!!
Happy Early Birthday, Gradon!
My vote is that you cook Gradon a fabulous birthday dinner that he will remember for the rest of his life! And he can help with the prep, which is half the fun of cooking.
All the times you post yummy food menus?? This is your time to shine, Meg….let ‘er rip!
:-)
Couldn’t resist, I just happen to make the bolognese source last weekend that Chris linked to and it is fabulous, as good as the one served at Soriso’s on South Street in the leather district.
doh! sauce
Happy Birthday to Gradon! Wish I was there celebrating with you guys. Miss you lots megfowler.com. I say enjoy a fabulous meal, in or out, with lots and lots of wine.
Much love to you both.
If you haven’t been there yet, may I suggest a hidden gem? It’s in the Theater District and it’s called “Ivy”. Wonderful, wonderful food. It’s somewhat of a tapas place, but in a very unique way. It gives you the opportunity to sample all kinds of great food.
We go there for special occasions, like, you know, Tuesdays.
holy canolli! have i been away from you so long that i missed, not only eric moving to vancouver, but you finding love?
sweet cracker sandwich, i need to get out more!
So long time reader because of… actually I don’t remember. I think it was an old professor’s blog or something. Anyway, I love your blog and have voted a couple times. I happen to live in San Diego near Eric. Funny as my dad’s name is Eric too. Enough coincidences. I took your post about long distance relationships to heart. The one with the radio clip especially. I recently started one and I get to see her tomorrow! I’m so happy you get to see your guy for so long! I only get one day but we’ll definitely make the most of it. She’s younger than me too. No big deal wouldn’t have known till she finally told me. She’s amazing. Well, I’ll be commenting more from now on so have fun on your trip and I’ll let you know how mine day goes! Thanks again for the inspiration! :)
