An tiny unpretentious Italian restaurant with hard
working staff and authentic Italian cuisine, Pomodoro is one of
those neighbourhood restaurants that is frequented by locals and
foreigners who keep coming back for more. Situated in the Northend,
Pomodoro serves a wide range of Italian cuisine from traditional
linguine marinara with lots of garlic and fresh herbs to seafood
wonders like tiger shrimp. The affordable prices and quality of
food make up for the simple décor, with most patrons being
mesmerised by the activity and aroma escaping from the open kitchen
and the food on their plate. Reservation recommended. Open Tuesday
to Sunday for lunch and dinner.

The succulent and large proportioned steaks, served in
style at The Capital Grille, send carnivores into raptures,
particularly the enormous 24-ounce (680g) dry-aged porterhouse that
is the restaurant's speciality. Steaks are hand cut and perfectly
seasoned before being grilled and served along a choice of more
than 350 bottle wine list. Seafood entrées are also on offer, and
the desserts include a tempting homemade cheesecake. The décor is
sophisticated and clubby. Open for dinner daily.

This new hip low lit and sharp angled venue is half
bar and half restaurant perfect for casual dining or big gatherings
of friends. The food is unpretentiously delicious with an array of
meals that mom used to make, only better. Mac & cheese and
meatloaf take centre stage alongside other deceptively simple
dishes that will have even food snobs sneaking in
bites.

example, features spicy halibut and clam roast with bacon braised
greens, white beans and black trumpet mushrooms. The atmosphere is

The Boston area's eclectic heritage is best
appreciated through its foods and nowhere better than at Pho 'n
Rice. For the uninformed pho is deceptively simple traditional
Vietnamese soup consisting of light but strong broth and noodles
with pieces of meat and vegetable that continue to cook in the
bowl. Pho 'n Rice has added great variations to the traditional
meal along with some Thai style dishes that promise to be both
light on the wallet and waistline.

The jewel of Boston's Chinatown district is the China
Pearl, renowned with both locals and visitors. The extensive dinner
menu is rather daunting, but each dish, from General Gau's Chicken
to Lobster Chinese style, is equally delicious. The restaurant's
Dim Sum menu (a variety of savoury snacks made of minced meat
wrapped in dough, shium mai or thin wonton and cooked in various
ways) is award winning and much sought after. Open daily for
breakfast, lunch and dinner.

'Your father and grandfather probably dined with us'
says the advertising slogan for this Faneuil Hall market
restaurant, which has been feeding the hearty appetites of locals
for well over a century. Today the restaurant is a tourist
attraction simply because the cuisine it serves is still authentic
old style New England. The food is unpretentious, honest and good,
including favourites like clam chowder, fish chowder, fish cakes
and beans, chicken pot pie, prime rib, roast turkey, cornbread,
Indian pudding and apple pie. Open daily for lunch and
dinner.

This completely local haunt would be a shame to turn
nose at as one should never underestimate the pure pleasure of an
American hot dog from a hot dog stand. This particular unassuming
stand sets the bar for all others and is consistently listed as the
best in the country. These behemoth dogs undergo an intricate
cooking and marinating process only taste buds can
understand.

It's just a shabby little shack with a deck
overlooking Boston Harbour, but it is renowned for serving the best
clam chowder in town, not to mention other seafood delights, and
even roasted chestnuts in winter. It is a little raucous at the
best of times out on the deck, and the indoor dining room is little
quieter and extremely casual. Live bands entertain while customers
crack and peel shrimp and crab claws and slurp pitchers of beer.
Fried clams, shrimp, scallops, oysters, calamari, lobster, fish and
of course crab are available in a variety of guises, from battered
to steamed. Open daily for lunch and dinner.

raspberry-infused vodka martini, and a varied wine list complete
the picture, offered with friendly service. Open for dinner Monday
to Saturday, and lunch on weekdays.
