Video: Grits With Pork Belly At Bondir
We're big fans of Bondir, Jason Bond's intimate restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This video showcases Bondir's Heirloom Keener Grits with Roasted Pork Belly & Broccoli, Shaved Dahlia Bulb & Black Truffle Chili Vinaigrette, a dish resplendent with Jason's support for sustaining local communities—and with his love for grits.Brighton, MA: Ringing in Chinese New Year at Joyful Garden
It all started when my friend (and occasional Serious Eats collaborator) Kate Shannon asked her culinary school instructor and famed cookbook author Helen Chen where she likes to eat Chinese food in Boston. Chen's reply: Joyful Garden in the Day's Hotel in Brighton. The Days Hotel?New England Patriots vs. Baltimore Ravens: Which Team Is the AFC Champ of Food?
Now that you've heard Ed break down the Giants and 49ers game this weekend—with predicted scores determined by their respective food town cred—it's time to talk about the Patriots and Ravens game. This one might be a little less fair since "New England" covers a sizable territory, but Baltimore has its share of serious eats to be sure. Here's a breakdown of all four quarters in the following categories: shellfish, beef sandwiches, pizza, and sweets.Waltham, MA: Tacos Especiales at Taqueria El Amigo
There are certain neighborhoods in Boston that are known for great Mexican food, but Waltham isn't one of them. When I think of Waltham, I think of Brandeis, Gordon's Liquors, watches, and some good Indian grocers on Moody Street. I'd never thought of it as a taco destination, until recently.A Sandwich a Day: Grilled Flank Steak from Dave's Fresh Pasta in Somerville, MA
In my mind, the best part about having steak for dinner is the leftover steak sandwich for lunch the next day. Squishy white bread, mayo, and steak with good tomatoes (when available) is pretty unbeatable. But it took the sandwich geniuses at Dave's Fresh Pasta to revolutionize my steak sandwich toppings.Cambridge, MA: Hell Night at East Coast Grill, a Dinner of Chile-induced Pain
One of the biggest Hell Night traditions at East Coast Grill: Russian Roulette Pork Meatballs. The deal is that each person at the table must order one meatball, and one of the meatballs is a fireball. You can see where it goes from here: Everyone takes a bite, then looks around to see who got hit.First Look: Tiffani Faison's Sweet Cheeks BBQ
Anyone familiar with Tiffani Faison's resume (Top Chef, fancy hotel dining rooms, Nantucket) probably wouldn't have predicted that her latest move would be a barbecue joint. But when Rocca shuttered suddenly last year and Faison (at the time, the upmarket Italian resto's executive chef) found herself ready for a new gig, the 34-year-old tapped into her Southern roots, studied up on Texas barbecue, purchased a 4,700-pound smoker, and, just last month, opened her first solo venture called Sweet Cheeks.A Sandwich a Day: Dr. Larry's Cure at Hi-Rise Bread Company in Cambridge, MA
December 7 is one of the most sacred squares on our national calendar, because on this date in 1956, basketball legend Larry Bird was born. I tell people my childhood idol was Martin Luther King because it sounds good and it's almost true, but Larry was really the historical figure I most admired. The new Hi-Rise Bread Company location on Mass. Ave. in Cambridge serves a sandwich called Dr. Larry's Cure, which I called upon to break the real-life Larry tie.Banana-Stuffed French Toast from Zaftigs in Brookline, MA
It's pretty well known that most people who crowd this Coolidge Corner institution for weekend brunch aren't here for bagels and lox or pastrami sandwiches. They're here for the short-order house specialty: banana-stuffed French toast ($9.95).Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab

But chocolate gift-giving needn't be a cliché. This year, let's bake our sweethearts chocolate cakes and pies instead! Here are 8 delicious recipes perfect for celebrating your love (of chocolate.)
