Boston Bound


Me and The Redhead. It’s good to be the king.

Tomorrow, I fly out to Boston to visit The Redhead. There’s a gathering tomorrow night at Clery’s for beer and dinner — feel free to drop by!


Gotta love how straightforward Boston food cart signage is. They also have carts marked “COOKED MEAT” and “LIQUID IN CANS AND BOTTLES”.

  • Dude, there is a REASON Toronto doesn't do the same thing. Who'd buy something under the sign "fries soaked in goo" or "waffle balls" or "peameal bacon sandwiches"?
    Hehehehehehe!

  • That's "backbacon sandwiches" (since you don't have to have pea meal on it), and I would (and do) buy such sandwiches.
    Heck, Harvey's is selling 'em now. (crappy flash-only websites...)
    We did, however, rename Brewer's Retail to The Beer Store.

  • When you come here next, we're going to St. Lawrence Market, and you'll have to try a bite of my tasty peameal bacon on a bun.

  • Evidently, it works with people here, though. Driving past a Harvey's a couple days ago with some friends, and seeing that they're selling backbacon now... a unanimous verdict of "Dude, we have to eat there" was arrived at.

  • Harvey's understands the meaties! I love their last ad campaign:
    "Fire. Meat. Good."
