Opera Boston Underground at Lizard Lounge

by Heather Bouzan | February 06, 2008

The Chinese New Year Spectacular at the Opera House

by Heather Bouzan | December 12, 2007
THURSDAY, JANUARY 10 - SATURDAY, JANUARY 12 If you didn't emerge on January 1 exhausted from all the festivities (and miserably hungover), here's another celebration to enjoy before snuggling into your annual hibernation. The Chinese New Year...

The BSO Repartee Series at Symphony Hall

by Heather Bouzan | December 12, 2007
TUESDAY, JANUARY 8 A darkened room, soul-stirring crescendos, bare shoulders, and power suits: under the right circumstances, a visit to the symphony could be very, very sexy. And no one will shush you for trying to get someone's number during the...

Boston Modern Orchestra Project at Club Cafe

by Heather Bouzan | November 30, 2007
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11 Normally the soundtrack to a night at Club Café (209 Columbus Avenue, Boston, 617.536.0966) consists of techno, Madonna, and old-school Britney. Tonight, though, booty-shaking beats take a backseat to culture as the Boston Modern...

Dave Kimelberg@Night: Think Ink

by Erin Byers Murray | October 17, 2007
AS VICE president and general counsel for a conservative East Coast venture capital group, Dave Kimelberg can be a pretty buttoned-up guy. At least until he takes his shirt off. Underneath those long pinstriped sleeves is an impressive body of work -...

Safe Haven

by Heather Bouzan | August 28, 2007
Not all of Boston’s artistic talent is getting noticed in Newbury Street galleries and line-out-the-door music venues. Haven (1820 Dorchester Avenue, Dorchester, 617.929.0299), an art lounge and bistro that’s set to open Labor Day weekend, targets those...

Hot Obsession: Matsuzaka Mania

by eldean | August 08, 2007

Hot Import: Icelandic Products

by eldean | August 08, 2007
A slew of luxurious, eco-friendly, and just plain fun products from Iceland (to say nothing of its über-attractive citizens) are proving why that country is worth a visit. But even if you can't get there, Iceland's natural resources - geothermal...

Hot at Night: Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Sometimes museum visits can feel like third-grade field trips: all hum-drum lectures, piped-in music, and blah cafeteria lunches. But not so at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (280 The Fenway, Boston, 617.566.1401), especially beginning on September...

Hot Hang: Seaport District

by eldean | August 08, 2007
We've been ready to love it for years; now the Seaport District has finally begun to live up to expectations as a neighborhood to be reckoned with. Joining old favorites like the Barking Crab (88 Sleeper Street, Boston, 617.426.CRAB) and Lucky's...

Tickled Pink

by webteam | July 31, 2007
It's a constant conundrum for us, especially in the summertime: red wine or white? We love the bite of a good, chilled vino bianco , especially when temps are creeping up around the 90s, but what if a red is what best complements our meal? Now the...

Cinematic Achievement

by webteam | May 22, 2007
We admit it: sometimes we skip out on a Friday-night flick because, after a crazy week, all we're craving is a cold brew. No longer. The Somerville Theatre (55 Davis Square, Somerville, 617.625.5700) is now serving beer and wine along with the obligatory...
