Julia Child opera

"Bon Appetit", a brief opera depicting Julia Child's cooking show, is part of the program for Boston Midsummer Opera, performing tonight, Friday, and Sunday. It was composed over 20 yrs ago and originally starred Jean Stapleton (Edith Bunker).

It's at the Tsai Center. Any good places nearby for a bite before or after?

    Kenmore Square is two ticks on the Green LIne or less than a half mile walk away. That would open Eastern Standard and Petit Robert Bistro among the high end options and a long list of budget options. A short walk southward will put you on Beacon Street at St. Mary's, where Taberna de Haro and Ginza are also solid options. The options westward on Comm Ave are generally much further to the west than Kenmore and St. Mary's, but would include Sarayi, Jo Jo Taipei, or Sunset if drinking is a major part of the plan.

      Cool! Thanks for the heads up. No good ideas in that area, though.

        I'm going tonight. After some deliberating, I guess I'll just grab a quick bite at the Super 88 food court.
