A "Corperate Baby Shower" brought us to the North End over last weekend, which like the South End is well known for it's Italian restaurants. I always wonder why visitors to Boston only know about the North End. So we have been like visitors in our own town. Our pick Nico Ristorante turned out to be a a great choice! Their risotto was to die for. So in the future when I am asked at the breakfast table about restaurant recommendations in the North End I can whole heartedly recommend Nico's. Usually our guests understand that we don't venture out a lot of the South End, because we have about 35-40 choices in the neighborhood.
The Dutch conductor Jaap vanZweeden makes his BSO debut at Symphony Hall tonight with a Beethoven and Rachmaninoff program. BSO currently lacking a music director brings a lot of new faces into town, which is a great opportunity. But in the long run we all are looking forward to find out who the next music director will be. We would be happy to preorder tickets for you at a small discount.
Tomorrow is the big day. My partner's Zeitgeist Stage company will open Alan Ayckbourn's play Time of My Life. Please check out www.zeitgeiststage.com to find out more about the production. The partial cafe seating in theater will make for a special experience. Enjoy conversation with the producer, director, designer during breakfast while I am gone to Argentina (Buenos Aires) next week
