Bar Vlaha

Greek restaurant · Brookline

"Greek food is having a moment in the Boston area, and Bar Vlaha is the best example of the cuisine done exactly right. The food is all about super shareable dishes from the mountain regions of Greece: think pork and fennel sausage, whipped feta aloifes, and flatbread-style pitas topped with fresh cheeses and smoky meats. It’s one of the toughest reservations to get in town, unless you show up right at 5pm on a Wednesday (and even that’s iffy). So force your friends, family, neighbors—pretty much anyone you can—to commit to a night out roughly a month in the future so you can try it all. " - tanya edwards

Fiya Hen

Chicken restaurant · Brookline

"Amazingly crispy chicken! Korean fried chicken is double fried with an emphasis on crunch. The skin is paper-thin over very juicy chicken with our house-made glazes adding unique flavors to the party. Served with a side of pickled radish as a palate refresher, making each piece taste as delicious as the first. Our Spicy sauce is our original favorite. Sweet with a bit of spicy, this is our homage to the flavors that put Korean fried chicken on the map in K-town spots across America. The Soy Garlic sauce is our soy garlic take on the second ‘traditional’ flavor. Often, Spicy and Soy Garlic are ordered together to provide a steady contrast of spicy and salty."
