Review: Cafe Adam Delights and Surprises Why Cafe Adam isn't in a position to turn diners away at the door, on a Saturday or any other day of the week, is a mystery to us.
Dashing Diner: Fine Dining at Gala Please leave room for dessert when going to Gala. I ordered the restaurant's signature Gala Apple Gateau.
Tuesday Afternoon Taste Test: Cafe Latino Upon walking into the café, you are able to take in the contemporary styles of the displayed exhibits which flow right into the restaurant’s décor.
Tuesday Afternoon Taste Test: Boston Sea Foods Restaurant The Boston Sea Foods Restaurant offers tastes of the shore to the city's downtown at a 160 American Legion Drive space that offers comfortable, casual dining and an extensive menu.

Monday Night Taste Test: Moulton's Pizzeria This is a family-fare restaurant with an affordable menu so extensive that it is hard to imagine a family who would be unable to find something for everyone.
Saturday Night Taste Test: Red Sauce Ristorante The first thing that strikes anyone who ever stepped inside the former neighborhood bar prior to restaurant owner and chef Eddie Ceccherini's intervention is the absolute transformation of the space.
