Puerto Rican Flavor Meets Pizza At This Massachusetts Restaurant And It’s Quite A Combination

Bacon pizza on one side of the counter and tostones with chicharrones on the other is exactly the kind of menu combination that makes me stop and look twice. This Massachusetts spot leans into Puerto Rican comfort food with frituras, pernil, empanadas, and sancocho, while still keeping a full pizza menu in the mix. I like that it does not seem interested in choosing just one identity.

Eli Eats Blue Lobster and Sees Everything Seafood

Fall break is a much anticipated reprieve from college life, but it can also be a bit bizarre, especially if one is staying on campus to shoot their film project. It then gets really weird if that aforementioned project wraps by Saturday eve, meaning that one has three full days with nothing on the horizon. The campus is, in the words of ska revival band The Specials, “like a ghost town.” Friends have departed for warmer pastures. Professors are professing. There’s actually nothing to do, except Uber to the closest theater, the Picture Show in Berlin, Conn. (rest in peace Metro Movies), to see “You Can See Everything.” The good news is that, on the way, you can get lobster.
