Craig manages this place like a champ. By far the best Panera I've been to, on the North Shore or anywhere else.
Good brisket. Sides were meh. Will try ordering a side of extra brisket next time.
Gluten-free carrot cake. So enormous and filling there's no shame in bringing some home with you. Loved the chicken avocado melt too.
Come before 10am on a weekend to beat the brunch rush. Or just tuck in your elbows and wait.
If you like sour ales and Spanish Sidra, don't miss Shacksbury and their Arlo cider
If you're lucky, your Barista will harmonize seamlessly with the Beatles background music. If you're not, the coffee with still be good.
The Leslie Scramble and Chilaquiles Verdes epitomize the light and dark sides of the Mexican breakfast spectrum. Savor them both with a Vampiro smoothie, but perhaps on different trips.
The spicy hummus here is spreadable perfection. Don't kid yourself that you can make do with only a small container of it.
A year-round craft fair under a single roof. Go here for small gifts and accessories that will look like you put more thought into them than you actually did.
Th observatory at the top of the trail is worth a visit in its own right, but you're missing out on the experience you don't hike up the trail from the base. Feels a bit like gently storming a castle.
If you're in Little Tokyo and feeling harried, stop in for a donburi, pot of tea and quick breather.
Go here for your next nostalgia fix of Italian American home cooking, especially if you have gluten issues.
No matter how many times I come here meaning to try something new, I leave with the chicken bowl and a deep sense of contentment. Start here and, if you're adventurous, work your way down the menu.
