I'd love to apply, but since our wedding is August 1st, I don't think Abby would want me to be in Australia:

Great article by Mark Bittman about what one should have and not have in one's pantry:

Boston Food and Whine has the list of Boston Magazine's 50 best restaurants and did a nice mark off of the ones BFW has been to:

I was thinking of doing the same thing, until I realized I've only been to like 10 or so of these places. Well, here's my attempt at least (italicized ones we have been to) :
1. O Ya
2. L'Espalier
3. No. 9 Park
4. Clio
5. Aujourd'hui
6. Radius
7. Hungry Mother
8. Hamersley's Bistro
9. Oleana
10. Cragie on Main
11. Meritage
12. Salts
13. Oishii
14. Uni
15. Ten Tables
16. Neptune Oyster
17. Icarus
18. Persephone
19. Mistral
20. Sorellina
21. Rialto
22. B & G Oysters
23. Troquet
24. Lumiere
25. Pigalle
26. Toro
27. Blue Ginger
28. Upstairs on the Square
29. Excelsior
30. Benatti
31. Sage
32. T.W. Food
33. Locke-Ober
34. Taranta
35. Rendezvous
36. L'Andana
37. The Butcher Shop
38. Via Matta
39. Dante
40. Scampo
41. 51 Lincoln
42. Lineage
43. Bistro 5
44. Grill 23
45. East Coast Grill
46. Estragon
47. Union Bar and Grille
48. Il Capriccio
49. Bin 26 Enoteca
50. Avila
That list is very interesting. I wouldn't put Pigalle up there after our last meal there. Either way, it looks like it'll be a while before we can claim we've eaten at every single place on that list.
