If my memory is correct, the first local gin I ever tried was Wire Works American Gin at the bar at Gibbet Hill in Groton. I liked it so much that I quickly ran out and bought a bottle, then another and another. Soon after I added the Wire Works Special Reserve to my collection, which was not at all a collection at the time, just gin I was drinking.
culinary experiment: Avgolemono
Avgolemono is a Greek soup made with chicken, rice, and lemon but the recipes I found on line were all really different so here's what I did.
quick bite: Urban Hearth
Urban Hearth is a very tiny restaurant on Mass Ave in Cambridge, but they do a lot with a little, providing diners with huge flavors from their small kitchen.
Casarecce Ristorante
The North End isn't one of my favorite Boston neighborhoods. But maybe I'll go there more often to eat at Casarecce.
Wusong Road
Wusong Road is an amazing tiki bar located just outside of Harvard Square. With great food and great cocktails inside a beautifully decorated historic building, I highly recommend it.
