Vy Eats: No Rest for the Wicked

What a busy weekend. It's Tuesday and I am still recovering.

The weekend started Friday evening with dinner at Figs in Beacon Hill.

Really good bread.

Bacony Brussels sprouts - not as crispy as I like.

Fries - yum.

Half calamari, half spicy chicken sausage - I really miss their spicy shrimp. With that said, I still enjoy the pizza here.

Go early. Or go late. It's a tiny place, and it gets busy. And very loud. But the pizza is worth it.

Saturday was Catherine's bachelorette party at Emerald Lounge in Boston. It's not a bad space. Small-ish, and weirdly set-up. Getting to the entrance is also interesting. Bathrooms are individual (love), with lights around the door - green for vacant, red for occupied (cool), buuut the inside bathroom walls are all mirrors (bizarre).

The food menu was very limited (boo).

Shrimp cocktail - meh.

Fries - good.

Daily pizza - bbq chicken was the pizza of the day. It could have used a bit more cooking time.

Chicken tacos - I didn't try this, but everyone said they were good.

Sliders - do not get. The bread was hard.

So, what are the chances I'd be back here? Slim to none. Just not my scene any more. And really, what are the chances, if I did go, that'd I'd be here for food? Bahahah.

Sunday morning, we were up early for Canobie Lake. So many great childhood memories of this place. It's funny how things change but still stay the same. Or maybe I'm the one changing.

Typical amusement park fare of hot dogs, burgers, and fries. Somehow, they managed to make me not even want to finish a hot dog.

After a long day in the sun, we went to Grand Chinatown in North Quincy. It was busy. Food was slow. And we were really hungry.
