Thats right...i have decided to go to Boston in the midst of the snow-storms that they have been having up there. Actually, according to some close friends, they seem to have avoided getting really slammed. I haven't been there since 2004 and I'm so looking forward to taking it all in.

I'm staying at the Boston Park Plaza - I have heard mixed reviews about it, but its in the middle of the city and I got a good deal on airfare package. Can anyone share with me their favorite spots in the city? Looking for either restauraunts or bars...

Thanks in advance!

I moved this from the Canada forum to the USA forum for you -- you'll probably get more responses this way. Wink

If you like tapas, then check out Toro. You may have to make a reservation before you leave home. I haven't been there but a chef that works where my wife works went and he said it was great. (I do not know how expensive it is.)

Two areas to check out:

1) Quincy Market, lots of bars and restaurants in with all the shops
2) The North End, lots of Italian restaurants, bars, bakeries, shops, etc.

And there is lots more, so if you have certain types of restaurants you are interested in, let us know and hopefully someone will have a suggestion.
