community supported agriculture
This is an off-topic post for me, but I felt compelled to write a quick blurb about the dinner I attended last night. It was a supper-club style event thrown by a friend in support of the Waltham Fields Community Farm. The primary purpose was to raise awareness (and money) for Community Supported Agriculture. This is a particularly important issue here in Massachusetts, which I knew little/nothing about. More information on the CSA initiative at Waltham Fields here, and more information about the Homegrown Supperclub (an awesome idea – bringing incredible local/sustainable food to the table) here.
dinner: inoteca
I had dinner last night with a few friends at Inoteca in the Lower East Side.
A good tapas bar with an upscale/hipster clientele. The service was a little awkward, because the explanation of the menu wasn’t very good. The wine selection is dense here, and help was appreciated. The food was actually quite good – we had a variety of bruschetta and panini. Stay away from the large chicken entree. It’s just about a whole chicken delivered in a bowl. Not good for sharing. And not good in general.
All in all – good place for dates, after concert snacking/drinking, friend gatherings.
