Pain Et Vin – Buenos Aires
by supershag on Aug.09, 2015, under Argentina, Buenos Aires, Cafe, Champagne, Coffee, Coffee Shop, Restaurants, Wine, Wine/Liquor Store
Bakery and wine shop all in one! We found this spot after shopping at a custom menswear shop on Gorriti. The owner was a fantastic help in selecting some sparkling wines to taste and take home! We also indulged in a tasty latte and multi-grain sourdough which we brought home but didn’t last 24 hours it was so good. We will certainly be back when in Buenos Aires again!
What A Bagel! – Toronto
by supershag on Oct.17, 2013, under Beer, Cafe, Free Wi-Fi, Restaurants, Roof Deck/Patio, Salad, Toronto, ON - Canada
Stopped in to What A Bagel! for a quick lunch. It’s a popular spot for folks working in the Toronto fashion district as it’s top quality food and fast service.
They have an extensive list of sandwich (on a bagel) and salad (with a bagel) options! I went with the arugula salad topped with chicken (sans bagel) and my friend tried the burger with sweet potato fries.
It’s a casual spot but worth a stop if you’re in the need of a quick bite to eat! Also if you’re from the states you’ll be able to take advantage of their wifi to stay connected with e-mail and online travel plans.
Table side discussions also revealed if you visit on your birthday with proof of ID you’ll walk out with a dozen bagels of your choice!
Life Alive Cambridge MA

A fantastic find for the vegetarian organic food lover!!! The taste of freshness in this food will stay with you for at least a week after you’ve eaten here. I went on a late Sunday afternoon and the place was pack with a line nearly out the door! The vegetarian menu of deluxe organic options is also supported with a robust smoothie menu.
I started with ‘The Innocent’ a flaxy Nutri-Nama sauce seasoning sweet corn, shredded carrots, broccoli, kelpy yeast & tamari almonds over quinoa.
My friend also had the Flourish Alive smoothie, a blend of berry kombucha, blueberries, mango, lemon, avocado and maca, it was DELICIOUS!
While you can’t make a reservation as it’s similar to walking into a Starbuck’s, putting in your order and having it rrive at your table in 10 minutes, you can order takeout!!!
They have locations in Lowell, Salem and Cambridge MA, I’ve only been to the Cambridge location:

Mike’s Pastry Boston, MA

A must go for the Boston tourist, with friends in town from Liverpool, we ended up stopping by Mike’s Pastry in the North End of Boston for as they put it ‘an unforgettable cannoli’
The line at Mike’s on a Saturday or Sunday will be out the door and to the end of the block, we went on a Thursday around 11AM, walked right in and grabbed a table.
OREO Cannoli…need I say more? Although it’s not my type of treat, they were 100% satisfied with this creation!
A latte to top it all off, which was just what I was needing!
