Three Latest and Best

Lunch at RBistro: Had a lovely late lunch with pals, spring pasta, and a chat with Chef Regina herself. A perfect way to introduce spring. Get the big table by the window. And the chocolate cake.

Dante at the Royal Sonesta in Boston: While my hostess had a lovely neighborhood French bistro picked, we were too tired to trek out again in the weather. Lucky for us, we stumbled upon one of the best modern Italian meals I've had in a really long time. Yes, Virginia, there are waiters who will intelligently answer questions about every menu item and wine on the list. (He had tried every wine on the list we asked questions about.)

Sushi Feed at BuDa Lounge: Sure, they've been open for six weeks or so, but Monday night, Stephen and Binh gave their new "regulars" a treat with a sushi-feed welcome. Dirty Geisha's for everyone! Thanks for the Opening Night festivities.
