Things I love include Union Square; Field & Vine; naturally leavened, wood-fired pizzas; and whimsy; so I'm all in on this one! bostonmagazine.com/restaurants/20…

One of our writers covered Zhi Wei Cafe, a fantastic new spot in Boston's Leather District that features Lanzhou beef noodle soup, and I tagged along to take photos. Check out the story, and check out the restaurant! bostonmagazine.com/restaurants/20…

@nadiachaudhury Oooof having moved from Chorus to WordPress when I left Eater, I will say I miss Chorus quite a lot. What a weird move!

(Also, there's a cocktail made with hots syrup—as in hots, the New England condiment on Italian subs, etc.—so that is very fun!)

Deep Cuts is open in #Medford Square—live music, food, and (soon) a brewery—and I am very excited. Partly because I can walk there, partly because it's just awesome. Here's a peek inside: bostonmagazine.com/arts-entertain…

@EYErishprEYEd Thank you! I really enjoy living walking distance from Dom's :) Probably go there too often, ha

It's been really fun digging into a meatier (ha) feature than my usual day-to-day reporting. I hope you enjoy! And now I need to take a break from eating steak tips for a while, I think...

So excited to finally put the digital version of this feature from our May 2023 issue out into the world. Huge thanks to all the chefs, butchers, culinary historians, and food lovers who chatted with me for this.

New spot from the Yvonne's/Mariel/Lolita/etc. crew opens TONIGHT, steps from Government Center, and it looks very cool. bostonmagazine.com/restaurants/20…
