Wood’s Seafood – Plymouth, MA

Posted on Leave a comment

Woods Seafood is located directly on the waterfront in Plymouth, Massachusetts, which makes it the perfect restaurant choice for those craving fresh seafood. If you are a fan of seafood, then Wood’s should definitely be on your Plymouth to-do list. They have everything seafood related on their menu including: lobster, shrimp, fried fish, haddock, salmon, lobster and seafood salads, lobster and seafood rolls, and plenty of seafood appetizers. I am not a fan of seafood, however, everyone at my table really loved their meal. My boyfriend loved his baked haddock and clam chowder soup. My dad enjoyed his meal so

Stoneforge – Raynham, Massachusetts

Posted on Leave a comment

Stoneforge Public House is the perfect restaurant choice for locals or those visiting Raynham or the Southeast Massachusetts area. This restaurant is a great choice for celebrating birthdays, graduations, and other special events. We chose this restaurant as an after graduation dinner. Stoneforge has an upscale casual feel. The beautiful dining room features vaulted ceilings and wood paneling. There is a cozy sitting area with a bar and fireplace. An outdoor patio dining area would be beautiful for summer dinners. Food was very appetizing, although a bit pricey. I liked the presentation, especially of the salads. Bread with olive oil

Mamma Mia’s Restaurant – Carver, Massachusetts

Posted on 1 Comment

Mamma Mia’s Restaurant is an Italian restaurant with several locations throughout southeast Massachusetts, including one in Carver. My boyfriend and I headed over here for dinner with a few family members. Everyone in our party loved the food. I recommend the pasta primavera, a delicious combo of pasta and vegetables in a creamy garlic sauce. My boyfriend really enjoyed his chicken, Alfredo, and broccoli pizza. The baked ziti and lasagna were also good. The portions are enormous. We ordered a brownie ice cream dessert, which was large enough for 6 people to split! Everyone had plenty of leftovers to take

Hiking at Breakheart Reservation in Massachusetts

Posted on Leave a comment

This weekend, we decided to find a new place to hike as opposed to Myles Standish State Forest. We hard about this reservation near Boston, called the Breakheart Reservation. We heard that there were some views of the Boston skyline from the top of one of the hikes, which would be interesting to see. There are several hiking trails which intertwine to produce longer hikes. We probably hiked for 2 and a half hours. The view of the lake were gorgeous, unfortunately many of the trees still did not have any leaves. I imagine it would be quite scenic during

Favorite Travel Channel shows

Posted on Leave a comment

The Travel Channel is a great way to get new ideas for vacations, spas, restaurants, activities, and resorts, both across the US and internationally. I really enjoy watching Samantha Brown. I love that Samantha often travels to little know hidden gems and gives us advice on local hotspots. Another benefit is watching her interact with local residents. Her shows are always entertaining because of her quirky, upbeat personality. Watching her show, she makes you feel like you are with her at the destination, not just watching the program at home. I feel like I always get a great glimpse of
