Boston’s culinary revolution began in the early 1980s with a cadre of young chefs, encouraged by Julia Child, who lived across the river in Cambridge. Within a decade, the restaurant scene had exploded. Today, bistros abound. The sushi wave is unabated. Steak houses and taquerias are ubiquitous. Thai food rivals Italian in popularity. Indian couldn’t be hotter. And Brazilian is the new Korean.
From the umbrella-shaded sidewalk patios of trendy Newbury Street to the Italian-American trattorias of the North End to the beer-fueled student haunts of Allston-Brighton and the dim sum palaces of Chinatown, Boston is now a city of great dining. Learn more at Epicurious.
