BOSTON SAIL LOFT - BOSTON, MA

I enjoyed lunch at Boston Sail Loft.  Food and service were ok.  Clam Chowder was one of the better ones we had in Boston but once again was loaded with Potatoes.  Could taste the Clams in this one though.  The Cup was pretty cool with the Chowder overflowing. The Calamari was pretty good with a light breading that didn't cover the taste of the Calamari.  Lobster was pretty basic for $40.

While in Boston, I just had to stop into the Omni Parker House to try a piece of Boston Cream Pie where it was invented.  While the hotel and restaurant are a bit old and depressing, the service in the restaurant was pretty good.  I liked the Baked Boston Scrod more than the Cream Pie.  Not my fave dessert.  Would not return again but got this off my Bucket List.

Enjoyed our lunch at the Union Oyster House in Boston.  Dining at America's Oldest Restaurant had a nice feeling.  Service was excellent and food was good.  Liked the fresh Oysters and Clams and probably should have ordered more.  The Clam Chowder was pretty basic and nothing to write home about.  Lobster Roll didn't impress but was ok.  Liked the Tender Fried Clams because you cannot get anything like them in Hawaii.  Both me and the Wife LOVED the Corn Bread.  Nice to get this place off my Bucket List but probably would not return.

BOSTON DUCK TOURS

We picked the wrong day to take a Duck Boat Tour in Boston.  Rain..rain and more rain.  Despite the weather it was nice to see the sights and hear the narration.

We went to Boston Commons to take a walk on the Freedom Trail.  Starting to pour rain so we ducked into Baker for a Bagel.  These were very light and flavorful bagels.  Loved it!
