140640 Fri Mar 19 20:51:18 -0800 1999 1 12 Boston Area 0 751916 Here we go - Lunch @ Brandy Pete's - Probably the best boiled New England Dinner I've ever had at a restaurant. Rich, tender corned beef served w/ boiled carrots, sweet & white taters, cabbage and since I'm with clients and the day is young, weak coke w/lemon. Dinner @ Clio- cool surroundings and a nice quiet bar in The Eliot Hotel - a nice way to relax after a full day of selling my wares. Dinner for myself and 5 clients ( old friends-very casual) was overpriced but everyone! enjoyed their meal) I had pan seared scallops with a caviar sauce for an app and a combo of short ribs & hangar steak for my entree. The tasting menu as described by our very nice waiter Billy sounded cool. Next day - lunch @ Pomodoro in the No. end. Curt waiter - water,beer, or wine! my friend asked- Do you have any soda? This clown says-didn't you hear what I said? I ask any specials? What a look!! However- we all had a DYNAMITE lunch! All pastas- Linguine w/Mussels, Farfalle W/tiger shrimp, salt cod, calamata olives, artichokes & new potatoes & Excellent meat ravioli. I think this Waiter/ Owner sort of settled down after I told him to turn down the music or we were history. I would definetly go back. Expresso down the block at his cuzin's place Graffiti> Regards, JK Fri Mar 19 20:51:18 -0800 1999 0 John Knoesel 1 751917 glad to hear you dug the food at Pomodoro/ boston. waiter didn't sound too cool however! next time hit modern pastry down the block for cannoli's, they'll blow yr mind!! enjoy Sat Mar 20 08:54:43 -0800 1999 751916 0 stephenkaye
