Modern Bar With Southie Roots

October 29, 2019 by Victoria Botana Leave a Comment

​​Searching for an off-Broadway place in Southie for some mid-week fun?  Look no further than  Sixth Gear – Cask & Kitchen on L Street on the east side of South Boston. It’s a quiet, neighborhood spot where you can try your hand at Family Feud style OpinioNation trivia on Wednesday nights and enjoy 1/2 off small plates until 6:30 before catching the Bruins or Celtics on the TVs behind the bar.   

 

 

The small bar and seating area are cozy and feature comfy couches and a variety of board games. The food is solid and a great bang for your buck during the App Happy Hour (try the cheeseburger or buffalo chicken egg rolls). They have a pricey but solid beer list with a ton of local offerings they’re very excited to serve you. Be warned… don’t order a Bud Light or the bartender might give you a hard time for ordering a bottle of “watah.” Check them out. Plenty of other stuff on their events calendar as well.

Outside the City: Wine, Fall, and A Halloween Treat

October 21, 2019 by Steve Borseti Leave a Comment

We spent an incredible Fall day with friends at a winery just across the border in Sandown, New Hampshire called Zorvinos. From its perfectly manicured vineyard to the music-filled patio where you can sip their wines and enjoy cheeses & meats, it’s a slice of Italy in New England.  

In fact, when our group carried our vino and cigars over to their 2 bocce courts, I instinctively started speaking with an Italian accent. But if you’re a vinofile, you can hang inside where there are tastings taking place at all times. 

Bonus for you Halloween lovers: We took the scenic route to Zorvinos by way of Chester, NH. That quintessential New England town (yup, with a General Store) is in the midst of their 10th Annual Scarecrow Contest. There are (no stretch) 1000 of the most detailed and amazing scarecrows you’ll ever see. From Marilyn Monroe to the flag—raising at Iwo Jima, the creativity is something to see.

If the weather looks good this Saturday, it’s great way to spend the afternoon outside the city. You’ll be back in Boston for any one of the 10 Halloween Parties taking place that night.
