{On my last trip to New York, I went to Eataly, where I saw servers grating Parmesan cheese onto steaming pasta with this cheese grater. The Alessi Todo Giant Stainless Steel Cheese Grater is gigantic. Standing at 18-inches tall, it’s a stunner for your counter and a great kitchen tool. I had to have it.}
{The Smokehouse Salad from Sauce on the Side is my go-to salad of the moment. It’s all the smoky barbecue flavors I love morphed into a salad. I’ve already had it three times this week, and I’m not tired of it yet.}
{Quincy Street Bistro is my latest obsession. Every dish I’ve had there has been quality. I love that my husband can get a plate of awesome fried chicken and fries, I can get a quality, local market salad with a fried poached egg, and we both walk away happy. Something for him and something for me.}
