Spicy Tuna Hand Roll

Where I Go Out
Carnitas burrito
$, Mexican, Burritos, Tacos, North Cambridge
"This is the best burrito outside of San Fran's Mission District. The braised carnitas, guacamole, salsa, and beans come together so well. They make for a simple, classic burrito."
Prune stuffed gnocchi
$$$$, Happy Hour, French, Full Bar, Italian,
"Pairing sweet prunes with foie gras is amazing. It kind of has a nuttiness and gaminess that is great, and the gnocchi is always perfectly cooked. This Boston classic is not to be missed."
Pâté Sammich
$$, Modern, American, New American, Bar, South End
"You can never go wrong with pork pâté in a sandwich with house-pickled radishes and onions."
Cheeseburger
$$, Outdoor Seating, Burgers, Full Bar, West Fens
"This is a straightforward burger with iceberg lettuce, tomato, and a sesame bun. It has a small four-ounce patty, the perfect ratio of meat to bun. I order it with fries and a Harpoon IPA."
Local clam chowder
$$$, Seafood, Fenway–Kenmore
"This is made with hand-dug clams and served with the most insane buttermilk biscuits. This is made with a clear broth from the juices of the clams, not a cream-based one. Plus, there's the house-cured bacon which adds a little extra sweetness and smokiness."
