"If you’ve been looking for an LED tree in your life, head to Banyan on Tremont Street. It’s got one in its lounge, so you can sit under shining blue branches as you sip on a margarita with house-infused ginger tequila. For dinner, our go-to order is the pork belly bao and the dan dan noodles, which have the perfect amount of spice. In the summer, grab one of the sidewalk tables under a thick canopy of branches strung with lanterns, and remind yourself that real trees are pretty cool, too." - dan secatore
