International Tastes

Ive been abroad to Ireland for a full week so after coming home and sleeping my jet lag off, My roommate and I decided to treat ourselves to an amazing brunch. This particular place we know someone who used to valet for, and Lauren went there before.

 You should make a reservation if you're ever going there, especially for brunch which we forgot to do and also, if you ever go, makes sure that you ask for the special brunch menu that's available until 11. The menu allows you to have the delicious cornbread, appetizer and main meal all for the low price of $7. Unfortunately, we went after noon, so we were limited to the regular menu. We still ate the delicious cornbread, which has three different jams or butters.

I ordered the Huevos Rancheros and Lauren got the Southwestern Eggs Benedict. I would highly reccomend them, if you ever get the chance go Saturday or Sunday before 11 to get a real treat!

Also, I know that I missed a post last week because I was in another country, however, I did sample some awesome food while I was there. Our friend Ryan decided that he would "prove that not all food in Ireland sucked" by bringing us to this classy restaurant. Not all food in Ireland sucks by the way, they just don't have a lot of food we're used to eating. He brought us to a place called The Farm which much to our dismay does not have any animals, but is all organic.

They have an Early bird menu that you can choose from and get three courses for a discounted price. For an appetizer I got a Asian green salad. For my main course, everyone else got the Risotto, but I got the Pork. My favorite part of the meal was my desert, which was a Raspberry Meringue.

Rainy Breakfast

My roommate Lauren and I are going to Ireland today, so before we get completely off the grid for an entire week we thought it would be good to go explore some of Boston a bit. Since Lauren, Parker and I didn't have any classes in the morning, we decided that to fulfill my requirements for the week that it was necessary to go get breakfast on Boylston. Laurens been to The Pour House for breakfast a couple times and thought it was amazing, so we took her advice and put on our rainboots and gathered our umbrellas before walking out the door. It was pouring out and we all got soaked, but eventually we made it to our destination for breakfast.

 

Lauren and I got the Eggs and Hash and Parker got the Super homefries which is supposed to be the ultimate breakfast dish. I don't usually eat breakfast, but the Pour House sure does know how to make it right, this is their Menu, if you ever get a chance you should definitely check it out. 

Beanpot Madness

About a week prior to the game, my friend Mike managed to get 11 of my friends and I tickets to the Beanpot. We went all out and got dressed up in our Northeastern gear and eye black and headed out to the TD Banknorth Garden where Northeastern was playing Boston College. Ive got to admit, the NU fans definitely had the BC ones beat. The game was amazing, every time a team scored, the opposing team always seemed to come back, and after every period, the game was tied up. This activity lead to what Northeastern referred to as "No Tee OT" since the fate of the game came down to the overtime which meant whatever team scored first won. Unfortunately, it wasn't us, but in the end the game made for an interesting outing with a bunch of my closest friends and some really great memories. We'll get em' next year Northeastern
