RISTORANTE FIORE

250 Hanover St , Boston, MA, 617-371-1176

Fiore is located in the heart of the North End, a classic Italian bistro with delicious food and a good ambiance. I went with a few friends and sat in the Bar area where things were more casual and lively. My friend recommended the Bombolini appetizer, Fiore claims to be the only North End spot to offer this octogonal tubular pasta famous for retaning flavours. I had it and it was delicious and so was the gnocchi.

BRICCO

241 Hanover St , Boston, MA, 617-248-6800

Bricco has a cool bar and is one of the busiest spot late at night in the North End. The bar is typically lined with beautiful people enjoying an after dinner drink. They serve beer on tap (good), and have a good selection of cocktails (also good) yet but do not seem to care about anything organic. As a lot of places in the North-End they do not even recycle glass... never mind carboard or organic material. For this I give them a one green rating. I have never eaten there but hear the food is quite good.

People are making a living on the 3Rs

Efficiency is becoming the new indicator in economics and certainly wins over growth in my books. It is fantastic that products and even services can now be re-purposed to achieve greater economic value and minimize impact on the planet. m

Box wine, camping and "out of the Box" thinking

Submitted by marting2.0 on Tue, 07/29/2008 - 12:02.

Being a sailor and wine lover I do buy a lot of wine in a box. I find the form factor is efficient in a cooler (I literally take it out of the box and just throw it in on ice. Best part is that the empty bags make for a cool pillow when camping or ice pack when curing a slight hangover!!!
