I receive a ton of questions from readers about where to stay when they visit Boston. I’m always hesitant to give my recommendations because I’ve only stayed at two hotels (now three) in the area. All of my family lives locally and when my friends visit, they stay at our house, so I just haven’t [...]

Slowly but surely, I’m becoming a beer snob. I won’t drink light beer in can or anything that is watery and flavorless. (Sorry, I don’t understand the obsession with PBR, and I never will.) I’m not a beer connoisseur by any means— I don’t even know what goes into brewing beer— but I know what I like [...]

Last night, I was invited to the “soft opening” of 5 Napkin Burger in Boston’s Back Bay. The restaurant officially opens to the public next week on March 23rd, so 5 Napkins wanted to celebrate by inviting their family, friends, and media to enjoy dinner on them, but also use the night as an opportunity [...]

Remember a couple of months ago when I asked readers for their Boston hotel recommendations? Well, it turns out that one of my readers works at The Colonnade Hotel, so she invited me to visit so I could experience the hotel firsthand. To be honest, I didn’t know much about The Colonnade, but when Katie, [...]
