Boston Favorite Spots, Part 1

There was a time in my life when I considered myself a Bostonian. I lived there for 5 years and had my spots I liked going. I still return to enjoy the beautiful city on the regular basis, and am glad to see these places surviving when every other lovely local gems seem to be taken over by major stores or banks.

My all time favorite since college has been sweet cream and it's still yummy!



















Yes, I do live in NYC, but Finagle-a-Bagel is where I love getting my bagels. I lived on them when I was a poor student back in the days, I still can't get enough of it!
