No offense at all!

My problem is that I never had a dog. At least, I learned something today!

I wonder if Alissa will take note when she reads this thread.

Hope they have Cannelloni !!!!!! and make my Wayne get 'sushi' and see what Rawbie orders so we can taste everything!

Thank you, RawLeah!

I am not sure why Jozzie keeps bringing up Waltham as she never mentioned it to me. She is planning to go to a wedding in Worcester. Oh well!

At least, Jozzie has the MapQuest link for Grezzo and figure out her travel plans now.

Here is the link again:

Oh yeah... but this is what I'm eating tonight!!!

[wyjoz]

Yah; they change menu! Good ! but for right now it's exciting to 'dream' ???


BUT BUT seriously; once I'm there ! I'm getting a whole bunch of things !

how often will I be in Boston aka Beantown???

[skunknuts]

I understand where you are all coming from. You too believe that someone espousing to bring a healthful way of life to others wouldn't lie or hurt others purposefully. But, they do and she has. I don't like seeing the cult-like following Alissa has when she doesn't deserve it. She is human, not a deity.

It's so great to read how passionate people are about raw food, and it's lifestyle. Praise the food, the wonders of how great food can heal the body. It's wonderful, it truly is and I recommend it for everyone.

Enjoy her food, go to her restaurant...that's fine. But when you hear something bad about someone, who you think you know...just keep your ears open, because it's not all a lie. If you only knew.

I'm going to Worcester well (Conn, NH, Leicester etc) but looking on a state of Mass. map quest the exit to restaurant is so close to rt 20 Waltham! so that's what's setting me off a little! I was hoping it was on outside of Boston instead of all the '''crazy'''' crucked streets in Boston so I don't get lost !!

Grezzo Restaurant
69 Prince Street
Boston , MA 02113
857.362.7288

I will get it! the right directions, exits, and turns, and BE THERE !!

Thanks Rawbie and Leah for helping with 'mapquest' Joz

[wyjoz]

Hey Rawbie: I had a chance to look at all the mapquests: yeah! by golly I think I got it !


on Grezzo's site; there is a map and at the bottom it states:

There is a parking garage at the end of Prince St. at the corner of Prince and Commercial.

http://www.grezzorestaurant.com/location.html SO THAT SOUNDS AS THOUGH IT'S WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE !

and you said! and I checked! IT IS CLOSE TO LOGAN ! SO WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DROP OFF CAR RENTAL AT THE AIRPORT AND FLY OUT! SWEET !

I talked to my family !!!!!!!!! They ALL hate driving in Boston! I remember my college days; drving to Little Italy and then getting lost twice !!!!! It's still the same? he???

When I was in Chicago! we took a Taxi from downtown hotel to Karyn's restaurant! HAD THE BEST BRUNCH EVER and took a taxi to the airport ! Yes it was a few $$$ but we could not follow the ''''transit'''' maps and directions!

Anyways; I got all the maps; and I'll meet you at Grazzo's ! Can't wait !!!! Joz

Yeah, Jozzie! Logan International Airport is only a stone throw from Grezzo. So you should consider renting a car where it could be dropped off at the airport at the end of your vacation. Eazy peazy!

I am still working on other parking options for you just in case the garage at the corner of Commercial and Prince Streets doesn't work out for you. It is my hope that Alissa will include additional information for those who rely on public transportation system (MBTA) in her Grezzo website.

While we are waiting for Alissa to do her part, there are two subway stations that are within walking distance to the restaurant. They are Haymarket and North Station MBTA Stations. Use the enclosed link and scroll slightly to west (left side of map). You will note the blue letter M in two different areas. Those are the T stations.

Please note that Little Italy is still the same with all those narrow streets. Worse of all, many of those streets are one way. Very confusing, indeed!

Guess what, Jozzie?

If you use the enclosed link again, it should answer everything you need to know. Just click the any of the keywords under "popular searches near this location" on the left side such as MBTA, parking garage and Logan Airport. You should be able to find directions based on wherever you are in order to get to Grezzo.

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...102,-71.055251

That should do it!

Please note that Little Italy is still the same with all those narrow streets. Worse of all, many of those streets are one way. Very confusing, indeed!

I'LL NEVER EVER FORGET LITTLE ITALY ! FRESHMEN IN COLLEGE TOOK OFF TO BOSTON; GOT TO THIS CUTE ITALIAN RESTAURANT AND WE ALL (5 YOUNG CHIKS) GOT OUR DINNERS AND A BOTTLE OF QUIANT !!!!!!!!! CHEERS TO THE 'WISE' ITALIAN OWNER WHO CHOSE TO MAKE OUR LITTLE ITALY THE MEMORY IT STILL IS !

THOSE DARN STREETS ! IT'S TRUE; THEY WERE PAVED AS THEY WERE MADE BY HORSES/DONKEYS NEVER STRAIGHTENED ! true????

[Hadassah]

Wow, the menu looks fantastic! The prices aren't too bad either.

Hmmm, I may just have to make a trip up to Boston one of these days! I hope someone will join me
