It’s been non-stop eating for the past few days. Boy, am I stuffed! Lots of seafood and clam chowder soup. I bet my cholesterol levels have gone sky-high.
There were no meetings on Sunday and so I went on the Duck Tours to have a quick look around Boston. Then when the tour ended, I headed to the South End Open Market, a flea market open every Sunday during the summer months. The stalls sold handmade arts and crafts, vintage stuff, second-hand things, homemade bread etc. It’s located at 540 Harrison Ave.
Then headed to the North End (the Italian quarter of Boston) where there was an Italian street festival along Hanover Street. There are lots of Italian restaurants and eateries there. The well-patronised cafes are Mike’s Pastries and just next to it, Cafe Vittoria. The tiramisu at the latter is great!
At night it was seafood dinner at Legal Seafoods, a famous chain of restaurants along the east coast of the US. Had steamed lobster, baked lobster, crab cakes and clam chowder. All very yummy!
Yesterday’s dinner was at Kingfish Hall, a seafood restaurant at Faneuil Hall’s South Market building. I had the Thai Bouillabaisse and tuna tartar and both were really good too. For desserts, their key lime pie and Boston Creme Pie are also good.
Anyway, those are just the highlights of what I’ve been stuffing myself with. Getting fat in Boston!
