  • BostInno’s “21 Local Must-Read Food Blogs”

    Our Friday Link today is to BostInno's "21 Local Must-Read Food Blogs," by Lisa DeCanio.

    The team here at BostonZest is honored to be included in this group. We recommend that you take a look at this collection. We're sure you'll find more than a few that fit your personal food taste. We were already following many of these and after sampling the rest, we've added a few more to our local food information feeds!

    Lisa also won our hearts when she said, "Oh, and it has nothing to do with food, but Penny has a whole section dedicated to dogs, with the most adorable photos of pups around the city." We do love our Boston Dogs!

  • Union Square Swirl & Slice: Specialty Foods Market

    The first Union Square Swirl & Slice: Specialty Foods Market is scheduled for tomorrow evening, June 14, 2012 from 5-8 pm. This new type of market will run each Thursday evening until September 20th.

    Somerville has been in the forefront of providing new ways to reach the people who produce local food. This new market will be one more fun way to connect with wineries, cheesemakers, and specialty food producers.

    What is Swirl & Slice?

    The folks at Union Square Main Streets say, "The items at Swirl & Slice: Union Square Specialty Foods Market will be those you’d pack for a romantic, summer picnic or bring for a weekend away with friends. Wine, cheese, cured meats, breads, jams, pickles and other locally-produced, refined foods that typically take the back seat at other farmers’ markets will be the stars here. Bread and other baked goods, roasted nuts, and cut flowers are also expected to be among the offerings. Check out our amazing vendors here."

    In addition to the opportunity to taste and purchase products at the market, there will also be live jazz. And, when you're ready to sit down for a relaxing meal, you'll have a wide selection of restaurants in Union Square. This sounds like the perfect place to meet friends, have some fun, and enjoy a summer evening. 

    If you go, come back and let us know what you think. We'll be following the news of this market and reporting back to you. Follow us on Twitter: @BostonZest for updates!
