More Boston

Going up North to walk the Freedom Trail – Paul Revere’s house – the take away? Paul Revere’s first wife had 8 children and then died in childbirth at age 36 … women were so strong back then … He marries again and then has another set of 8 children – grand total of 16 children. Unthinkable today.

Recommended eateries by the locals:

– Ristorante Limoncello
– Jacob Wirth
– Legal Sea Foods
– Shake Shack
– Maria’s Pastry shop; Mike’s too:) – “I don’t think you would be disappointed with their cannoli” said this lady:) & yes, she was right.
– Pauli’s

if you are vegan, Clover:)

These recommendations made me think – what would I recommend if out-of-towners asked what is the most “typical” and “well-known” eateries to visit in San Francisco or Silicon Valley?
What would we recommend for that Bay Area/Silicon Valley/San Francisco experience.
???

Where do we take our tourists?

Some lovely yoga studios I love – of course:)

Oh, food-wise?
I shall make a list ! Summer is coming; people come and go.

Shake Shack in Boston

Love ‘Shroom burger. 

Staying away from red meat with absolutely no problem. When I was told Shake Shack in the In&Out on the East Coast, I did not expect to eat there – just was going to eat onion rings or something but look ! Look !
 Love this!

Melted muenster cheese with juicy on the inside crispy on the outside portobello mushroom. 

Legal seafoods.  Regret that I did not try their famous clam chowder, calamari or a lobster roll? This is more like my typical good day dinner at home – a comfort food? Brown rice; wild caught salmon, seaweed salad, sauteed shiitake mushroom … homey & good. Interesting to note Asian influence at this quintessential New England seafood chain that got its start 60 years ago in Cambridge MA.

Very Boston German beer hall. And yes, that’s because this is Boston. Asked Bostonian where would be a very typical “Boston” restaurant and she recommended this place. Feel like just onion rings and beer …all this fried foods can’t be good for me/you but … it’s a vacation so it doesn’t count?   At the very least I am adhering to no red meat or processed food diet.


I am not Vegan. I am sorry I can’t be a Jiva but happy to be … seafood loving Pescatarian who eat Vegan when it’s not stressful to do so.

‘Shroom burger is probably not THAT healthy as it is deep fried not grilled but … Mmmmnnnn so good:) Crispy on the outside … juicy with oozy melted cheese on the inside…
Why there’s no Shake Shack in Northern California is beyond me.

Next – Yoga in Boston:)
