		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a while since I was last at the Voo. A couple of friends and I traveled there shortly after it had reopened under its present management. A former dive, they were upgrading the food and the atmosphere and turning The Rendezvous into a 21st century dive. I liked it, but it was clearly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In New England, no one gives directions to where something is, only to what used to be there. At the Lumber Yard Restaurant in Amherst, you don’t see Fenton’s, the sporting goods store that used to be there. Instead, you see a well-appointed and very calm restaurant that you’d never guess opened barely a month [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend, Sarah and I spent an afternoon at the Clark with my cousin and her husband. Somewhat frustrating to me since a number of my favorites were on tour, but a good afternoon nonetheless. After the museum, the four of us went off to dinner at MEZZE (777 Cold Spring Road (Route 7), [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a while since I ate something in a restaurant that didn’t taste like something I could make in my kitchen. Then, inside of a couple of weeks, first the chicken pot pie at Rose 32, then the meal at Ibiza. Bring it on.
We met some friends at IBIZA TAPAS, which is the way [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a good week for food. Especially eating. On Thursday (my memory doesn’t extend back further)(you know how that is), the Food Bank of Western Mass held a fund-raiser at the Blue Heron. The theme this year was street food—American, Mexican, Thai, Indian, and Greek.
It was pretty good—roast lamb from the Greek stand. Chicken [...]]]></description>

From sausages and Lebanese food in Worcester, to Italian and Atlantic seafood in New Jersey, to Mexican food in Colorado, he’s eaten everywhere and [...]]]></description>

So my friend Paul and I ate at Mulino&#8217;s last night. I&#8217;d reviewed it and liked the food. But not last night. Our waiter kept dashing off, like when he asked what we wanted to drink and Paul told him we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tonight, Sarah and I decided to eat out. We were tired of the neighborhood Korean place. Nothing in Amherst appealed to us. Sarah suggested Mi Tierra in Hadley. I covered it in 2007, in its original configuration&#8211;a smaller restaurant and a grocery&#8211;but I focused on the grocery which was on its way out. I liked [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If I was still reviewing restaurants, this is the kind of place I would have loved to find. Good food, out-of-the-way location and the feeling like you’ve stumbled onto a little gem. The GILL TAVERN is at 326 Main Road, Gill, 863.9006, which is a lot easier to find than you might think.

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes it&#8217;s all about memory. After a weekend of seemingly endless stacking of wood, cooking various hot sauces, and cooking out of our out-of-control refrigerator, Monday night I wanted something comforting. Preferably nothing that looked like anything in our refrigerator. I wanted tomato sauce, melted mozzarella, and that deep fried crisp taste of an old-time [...]]]></description>
