今日のお昼ごはんは、同僚3人と一緒に昨夜オープンしたばかりのアイリッシュパブ、Waxy O'Connor's へ行ってきました。ここは私の会社のすぐ近く(歩いて5分ぐらい)なのですが、この場所は私が今の会社で働き始めてから (約8年前) 今までの間に経営者が3回も変り、これで4つ目のレストランです。今度のレストランは長続きしてくれるといいのですが。
For today's lunch, my coworkers and I went to the Irish pub, Waxy O'Connor's, just opened last night very close to where I work. The owner at this place has changed 3 times since I started to work at the current company (almost 8 years), and this is the forth one. Hope this one lasts for a long time.

Dinner at Hugh O'Neills
Finally Friday! We were tired and didn't feel like going out too far, we went to Hugh O'Neills, an Irish pub near our house for light dinner. The pub has outside patio, so Poirot came with us. |
"Hi, I'm here!" |
Buffalo wings. Poirot got some carrot sticks. |
"I want to eat that wing, too!" |
Guinness beef stew. I wasn't expecting too much, but it had nice Guinness flavor and beef was very tender. |
Fried calamari. Lots of fried hot peppers, too. |

North End & Quincy Market
日中は暑いので家の中で過ごし、日が傾いてきた午後7時半ごろから North End へおでかけ。North End はボストンにあるイタリア人街で、たくさんのイタリアンレストランやカフェなどがあり、観光名所にもなっています。土曜日なので、車を止める場所があるかどうか心配でしたが、ラッキーなことに開いているスペースを発見。駐車場代を払わなくてすみました。
During the day time, it was too hot to go out, so we stayed home most of the time and went out to North End at around 7:30 pm. North End is an Italian town in Boston and there are many Italian restaurants and cafes, and is always crowded with tourists. I was worried abort a parking space as it was Saturday, but luckily we could find a spot on the street. We didn't have to pay for the parking!

Since Poirot was with us, we had limited options for restaurants that we could go (only ones with patios). Since we were not too hungry, we decided to take a light meal at Goody Glover's, an Irish pub (in the Italian town!). |
It's getting dark. |
Poirot looked a little bit tired. |
Mussels in white wine and garlic sauce. Mussels did not seem very fresh... There were a quite few shells that were not open. |
Bread came with mussels. It was tasty with the sauce from mussels. |
Three kinds of sausages and vegetables. Came with two different mustard and pita bread. |
We then walked to Long Wharf. We saw lots of cruise ships docked in the wharf. |
We further walked to Quincy Market. It was already after 10 pm, but still many people were walikng around. |
Most of the shops in Quincy Market were already closed, but this ice cream shop was open, so we got a soft serve. |
It had a strong milk flavor and was very good, but very expensive (nearly $7)! |
Then we finally came back to North End. |
We arrived home after midnight. Poirot walked a lot as well, and looked very tired. |
