My name is Barbara Hickman, and I’m delighted to welcome you to our blog dedicated to the incredible restaurants of Massachusetts. As a true foodie and a resident of this beautiful state, I am passionate about exploring its culinary treasures and am eager to share my discoveries with you.

Massachusetts is a true mecca for food lovers. It combines the traditions of old New England cuisine with influences from around the world. The staples of our culinary landscape include everything from classic lobster and maple syrup to innovative dishes from world-class chefs. It’s a place where everyone can find something to suit their taste.

My goal is to guide you through the best restaurants in the state that are worth a visit. From fine dining in Boston to cozy places on the coast, I strive to share with you not only reviews, but also the stories behind each restaurant.

I explore both the famous and the small, unknown places that could become your new favorites. I enjoy discovering non-traditional dishes, celebrating the best places for family dining, and introducing you to the cultural characteristics of our state’s cuisine.

I always approach my restaurant reviews with a keen eye for detail. It is important to me not only to enjoy the food, but also to understand what makes each restaurant unique. It could be a special ingredient, a cooking style, or just a great atmosphere.

My blog is not just about food. It’s about the experiences it brings. I love to share stories about the people behind the restaurants and how their culinary innovations have impacted the Massachusetts food scene.

I invite you to join us on our gastronomic journey through Massachusetts. Read our articles, share your impressions and leave comments. Your feedback and questions are always welcome!
