On one of our many visits to the Boston Public Library in Copley Square, Penny picked up a flier for the 10th Annual Roslindale Open Studios to be held this weekend. (November 1st and 2nd from 11 a.m.-5 p.m.)
This is a great opportunity to explore Roslindale, one of Boston's "hidden treasure villages." We love this place – lots of great food and small businesses.
If you go on Saturday, you can add the Roslindale Farmers' Market to the mix. We haven't posted about this market for a while, but it's still going strong with a great group of vendors. Here's our post from a few years ago.
A Food Lovers Destination
We've also covered a few wonderful food spots that are still going strong:
Fornax Bread Company is a must stop for all bread-a-holics like Ed.
Romano's, where we recommend getting tacos from a pizzeria.
Boston Cheese Cellar is another must stop to put on your walking map.
While this may not be a typical tourist destination, it is a great outing for someone who wants to discover a new corner of the city.
