Update Jul 20, 2012: This restaurant is now closed Welcome to Blueberry World, where your wildest dreams and pleasures will come true!!!

Today was a sort of family day. Dad was getting cataract surgery done at VGH so Mom and I drove him down there. When we dropped him off, we had about an hour to kill, so we thought of going somewhere. There really isn’t much around the W. Broadway/Oak area, so it took us quite […]
Wendy and I have been wanting to come to this place for a while. We have been at Excellent Tofu a couple of times in the past and it was quite good. After we had dinner, we rushed to Excellent Tofu at Central Square to try to get there before 9pm, only to find that […]

The process is super simple. You select the […]
I went down to Seattle with a co-worker for a one day trip since she had always wanted to go to The Crab Pot. We were able to fit a lot of shopping into the day and when we arrived at The Crab Pot, it was a bit too early for dinner so we decided […]
I’m always on the lookout for a good Chinese-style dessert place. Boyfriend’s mom told me one day about a new place that opened up near the public market that does just that. Chinese-style desserts are hard to find here. Most of the time the only encounter you have is at a Chinese restaurant where they […]
Remember these? I certainly do. I went and got a dozen more. They package the macarons nicely in boxes ready for gift-giving. They have prepackaged one that has an equal mix of all six flavors. For this 12-pack, it cost $11 total including taxes.
