Boston, Massachusetts

Oliver Wendell Holmes may have simply meant that Boston’s State House was “the hub of the solar system.” But locals quickly deemed the whole city worthy of such praise, and Boston itself became known as “the Hub.” (Later, Bostonians would expand this modest conceit to encompass the entire universe). For certain, Boston was the home of some of America’s most important nation-building moments: the Boston Tea Party, the start of Paul Revere’s ride, the Battle of Bunker Hill. At one time, Boston was a major player in turning Caribbean molasses into rum -- molasses also being the secret ingredient in Boston baked beans and Boston brown bread. Today, Boston is a hub of both fine and causal dining. The North End continues to show off its Italian heritage. And the South End is rapidly becoming the best place in town for enjoying trendy cuisines. If you’re looking for coffee and a donut to get you going in the morning, you shouldn’t need to walk further than the nearest corner to find a Dunkin’ Donuts.

Company Couscous

Reviewed on Jun. 29, 2008 by cookin'mama
Made with whole wheat couscous and tasty tom tomatoes,this was an excellent, colorful side dish. For a richer version, water can be replaced with chicken stock, but we didn't feel it was necessary.

Best Steak Marinade in Existence

Reviewed on Jun. 26, 2008 by JenLW
I made this exactly as the recipe calls, but this was too acidic for my taste. I would make this again, but bring the lemon juice down to 1 tablespoon. I did like the combination of everything else, but it was just too acidic with the 1/3 cup of lemon juice.

Patriotic Banana Split

Reviewed on Jun. 24, 2008 by prell2k4
Very good, nice change of pace to fresh fruit without making a fruit salad. The combination of the cream cheese and mashmallows was great.
