Boston and Seafood

Our trip to Boston didn't exactly turn out the way we had planned. P. made two trips to the ER, was virtually confined to a room for the trip, and was forced to cancel her interviews. However, I am so thankful that we made it through a very trying time and am very grateful to our hosts R. and A., who were so kind to us in feeding us, giving us rides, and attending to all our needs. Their cute son provided much additional entertainment. He's quite an accomplished guitarist, as seen in the picture below. When he plays he taps his foot on the ground. It's hilarious.



Though our trip to Boston was nearly a wash, we did have a fun time the first few days. On Monday night we spent time with our awesome friends Keke and Jade in the North End. They introduced us to The Daily Catch, an unassuming restaurant with scrumptious seafood; they also have branch in Brookline.

Here Keke and Jade demonstrate the proper way to eat calamari.

P. had a cool dish: ground squid served over noodles died with squid ink. I like how it's served in the pan in which it's cooked.

My mussels weren't half bad either.
