Today we came to East by Northeast inCambridge for brunch. We visited here once for dinner a long time ago, but my husband didn't like it very much and hadn't come back since.. But I thought the brunch would be a low risk, so we gave it a try again. |

Dinner at Eurbaluce
Tonight we came to Erbaluce for dinner - it's been a long time since we visited last time. |
My husband ordered the red wine recommended by our waitress. |
I didn't taste it, but my husband loved it. |
My husband ordered one of today's special - the shad roe dish. |
And we had espresso after the meal. |
At our last visit, we were not impressed by their desserts, so we considered skipping it this time, but decided to try just one. I chose the safest one in the menu - the poached pear with caramel sauce. |
Inside was very rich lavender-flavored cream. I liked it a lot, actually. |

Dinner at Tenoch Mexican Grill
今日は数ヶ月前に家の近所にオープンしたメキシカンのお店、Tenoch Mexican Grill にやって来ました。セルフサービスの、小さなお店です。
Today we visited Tenoch Mexican Grill, a Mexican restaurant that was opened several months ago near our home. It's a tiny, fast-food style joint (but it is not so fast as most of things are cooked to order)..

This was also today's special, tilapia con guacamolillo sauce, with sauteed peppers and avocado. |

Lunch at Lobster Pool, Rockport, MA
It was the beautiful weather in Boston today again. So we drove to Rockport (40~45 min drive from Boston) for lunch. The place we chose today was "Lobster Pool". |
I ordered a lobster roll - this was the first lobster roll I had this year! It had many big chunks of lobster meat - pretty good. |
After the lunch, we found a beach on the way to the city center - there was nobody in the beach. |
Poirot walked on the beach, looking for something good (or edible?) there. |
But suddenly the water came very close to him and he got scared and backed up... |
He also licked the water - of course he didn't know it was salty and he looked shocked a bit. |
Then we came to the city center - lots of tourists around here. |
We saw many boats which were for catching lobsters. |
Colorful lobster traps and buoys were beautifully displayed - I think these are for sale. |
Poirot found a big stuffed dog was in front of a shop - he thought it was a real dog and barked at it. He is so funny! |
And he totally crashed in the car on teh way home as usual.... |

Dinner at Highland Kitchen
Tonight we came to one of our favorite restaurants, Highland Kitchen, for dinner. |
It's very popular and always crowded, so we came early (~6 pm), but ~80% of seats were already occupied. |
First we ordered the buffalo fried Brussel sprouts. It was spicy and good with beer. |

Lunch at Trattoria di Monica
Today we visited North End and had our lunch there. |
The restaurant we picked today is Trattoria di Monica, a tiny restaurant with ~20 seats or so. |
As soon as we sat at our table, bread and olive oil/balsamic vinegar were delivered. The bread was OK. |
The second course was the bruschetta all’Italiana (grilled bread, tomatoes, basil, garlic & extra virgin olive oil). The tomatoes were juicy and sweet. |
After the lunch, we stopped at Bova's Bakery just across from the restaurant. Then I found these big arancine! I couldn't resist and bought two of them with prosciutto for dinner. |
Then we walked to the water front with Poirot to consume some calories we took. |
