"At Cutty’s in Brookline Village, “hots” refers not to a spread but to a mix of sliced pickled cherry peppers and banana peppers; co-owner Rachel Kelsey says that calling any pickled hot pepper “hots” was second nature to her and that many customers still ask, “what is ‘H-O-T-S’?” Cutty’s is described as a lunch spot that sells skillfully crafted sandwiches, ultra-fresh salads, seasonal soups, and homemade snacks and cookies." - Luke Pyenson
