Bikes!

By the way, it's bike to work week in MA (actually May is Bike Month). Happy and safe biking (this week and all year 'round)!

Fenway Food

Some places to get some pre-Fenway food:

Lower Depths Tap Room - Yay! Beer!
476 Comm Ave, Boston

Other Side Cafe - Yay! Bike messengers drinking beer!
407 Newbury Street, Boston (don't roll your eyes - not THAT side of Newbury!)

Audubon Circle - Unprententious yet fancy bar food with well-edited wine and beer selection; bamboo-enclosed, jewel box of a back patio that we LOVE. 838 Beacon Street, Boston

Eastern Standard Kitchen - For those nights you're fed up with dives and want fancy-ass cocktails and food to match (fantastic bar led by the incomparable Jackson Cannon).
Tends to attract the bridge-and-tunnel (or the equivalent in Boston) type crowds on game nights. 528 Comm Ave, Boston

dinner and snack

Had miyuk guk (Korean seaweed soup) with some white rice tonight. I put bulgogi (thanks mom!) in B's, tofu in mine. Delicious light dinner. For a snack, I made veggie bean chili but I guess it won't get eaten until tomorrow night. For now, a couple of glasses of rough red wine, new episode of "24" and there's our Monday.

Deep Ellum, Allston, MA

Snack at Deep Ellum, Allston, MA late afternoon today. Split a steamed pretzel with tasty, grainy mustard side. B had the *Hot Damn Wings* (nice crumbly coating, decent heat level). I had the veggie lentil stew, spooned over jasmine rice which was (subtly) redolent of coconut. Couple of Dogfish Head 90 minute Ales, BBC Coffeehaus, and Smuttynose IPA. Good snack.
