Foodie Weekend

Food was definitely the theme of the weekend! Thankfully I was able to run and workout these past few days or else I’d be really having it tough today!!

Friday night sushi date at our favorite local place!! Any friends or family that visit us we always take them to this gem because not only is the sushi incredible, but the service is unmatched in all of Boston!

I was invited to attend a Blog & Tweet event at the new Del Frisco’s Grille in Chestnut Hill on Saturday. Check out the lobster claw & egg burger which happens to be their burger of the month!! While I didn’t attempt to eat that bad boy – I’m really excited to share their fantastic menu with you guys later this week!

Boston just got its very own Wegmans!! While I’m definitely not a wino – one can never be too prepared and I was happy to stock up on their seriously well priced selection!!

In an attempt to “lighten” the food load – I made lettuce tacos on Saturday night. Sometimes you just want tacos without all the carbs and lettuce is the perfect substitution. 

To complete my gluttonous weekend, on Sunday we checked off one of our bucket list items in Boston and visited the Taza Chocolate Factory in Somerville. A little out of the way from transit but well worth it for the amazingly delicious pure chocolate that you get! 

Welp now that my mouth is watering all over again I’ll wish you all a happy Cinco de Mayo and hope you enjoy some fresh guacamole & a cold margarita!! 

Please let me know I wasn’t the only one to eat so much this weekend…

I mean – cuteness overload! 

xo,

Biana

    OMG that last picture I die from the cuteness!!! Del fresco sounds really good, I've never been. The chocolate factory?!! I'd be the blueberry girl in willy wonka and want it all! I'm going to need to workout just from reading. Looks amazing though!

    Food is the BEST thing to base a weekend around, at least I think so.

    I love me some lettuce tacos so much!

    I am definitely a little jealous of the foodie weekend, especially the sushi! I need to swing by Wegmans — my coworkers won't stop talking about it!

    Sounds like a great weekend! That burger looked really good, but every time I see a burger like that I'm like how am I supposed to bite into that?! Haha. If you're interested in any inexpensive wine recommendations I've got some that you should be able to find in your area. 🙂

    I am an idiot bc when I never heard nor thought of lettuce tacos before your IG pic. I agree it is a great light meal bc when we have them at home I purposely skip lunch bc tacos are such a heavy meal to me!

    So much goodness in this post! There are a few Wegmans in Maryland and people always rave about them but we've never been (yet)! I love lettuce wraps but never thought to do them with tacos– such a good idea because I love to load up on the lettuce in tacos anyway! And ahh a chocolate factory tour would be so much fun! I can't wait to hear more about the blogger event you went to– that food & the drink look soo good 🙂

    That sushi looks amazing! And how exciting you have a Wegmans! I live in Rochester which is the home of Wegmans… we literally have 2 within a 5 minute drive, and I love it. It's always the thing I miss most when we're gone. We don't have a wine selection though. Jealous!
