Denver-Boston Food & Restaurant Dialogue
My favorite time-waster/time-spender is to check out the latest posts on Chowhound , an online foodie community of people who like to eat out, people who like to cook, people who like to watch the Food Network and various combinations of these likes.

(She can reveal her name if she cares to, but I won't.) I also went to college in Boston and am now a [...]

One Hit, One Miss at China Gourmet
Mixed review of one one dinner at our favorite, informal Chinese eatery. I grew in Connecticut not far from New York City. Chinatown seemed like an exotic land that was just a one-hour train ride and a quick subway ride from home. I went to college in Boston, which has its own small Chinatown. My roomates and I usually went there for Sunday dinner, which was the one meal not available on campus. After graduating, I moved to New York and later across the river to Hoboken , visiting Chinatown often to eat and [...]
