If you look at Boston from a distance — and D.C. is quite a distance from Boston — it may seem, on the surface, anyways, like a pretty boring city when it comes to food. Here's the truth:
Get New England news, weather forecasts and entertainment stories to your inbox.I know, I’m just a lowly food writer who doesn’t even know what early modernizer means, but I tend not to think about highbrow stuff like that when I’m digging into a pile of steak tips at Newbridge Cafe in Chelsea or scarfing Sicilian slices at Galleria Umberto in the North End or digging into lobster meat from James Hook on the waterfront or looking longingly at a roast beef sandwich at Dina’s in Salem.
Instead, we have great Caribbean and Central American eateries in Mattapan, Dorchester, Roxbury, Chelsea, East Boston and Everett; outstanding Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Southeast Asian spots in Chinatown, Allston, Quincy and Malden; excellent Italian restaurants in the North End , Medford and Revere; fantastic Indian restaurants in Cambridge, Somerville, Burlington and Woburn; marvelous Portuguese places in Cambridge and down toward the South Coast; and, well, you get the picture.
For the best steak tips, go immediately north of Boston; for the best roast beef sandwiches, go a bit further into the North Shore; for the best bar pizza, head south of the city; for fantastic roadside ice cream stands, go west; for sublime seafood, take a drive anywhere along the coast; and so on.
I’ll never forget talking to a truck driver who told me how strange it was that so many exits off Boston-area highways didn’t have huge commercial developments with chain restaurants, gas stations and the like, instead dumping him into pleasant residential neighborhoods or undeveloped wooded areas. That’s because, unlike certain other cities, chains don’t totally dominate the landscape of Greater Boston.
