Peg's diner in Whitinsville has prices that blows my mind- nothing over ten dollars!

You could get a soda, cheeseburger, fries, and slice of pie for under ten bucks.

And yes, the food is actually good!

These are places I actually send people to.

Dali (Somerville) – Spanish small plates, cool vibe. Been around forever and still earns it. Get the gambas.

Oleana (Cambridge) – Ana Sortun's Middle Eastern-influenced cooking. One of the most creative menus in the city and somehow still flies under the radar nationally.

Umami (Cambridge) – Omakase that locals will tell you rivals O Ya at a fraction of the price. Reservation only, small room, worth every penny.

The Dubliner (Downtown) – Actual Irish pub with actual good food. Not a tourist trap. If you've walked past it assuming otherwise, you've been wrong.

Ma Maison (Near TD Garden) – Tiny French bistro that feels like it got lost on the way to Paris. Nobody talks about this place enough.

Capri (South End) – Beautiful new Italian spot with a great bar and outdoor seating in the summer. Perfect stop after the SoWa market since it's right next door.

Sarma (Somerville) – Turkish mezze that still requires booking weeks in advance. Tip: get there when it opens, it usually has bar seating.

Pammy's (Cambridge) – Delicious Italian small plates with a twist. Skip the fixed menu and get there early to grab a seat at the bar.

Mahaniyom (Brookline) – Best Thai spot nobody outside Brookline talks about. Great food, incredible hospitality, and they bring you tequila shots if you're celebrating. Also has a black-light bathroom mural which is a 10/10 detail.

Galleria Umberto (North End) – Cash only, lunch only, closes when they run out of dough. Sicilian slices and arancini that locals have been lining up for for decades.

Hello everyone :) I recently got back from a trip to China where I had some VERY good dan dan noodles in Chengdu. I had never had them in the US before I went to China and decided to order some today because I missed the ones I had on my trip, but they were nothing like the ones I had there. Is there anywhere in Boston that makes dan dan noodles more similar to the way they do in Sichuan province? Attached is a picture of the noodles i had in Chengdu that I liked so much.

From their Facebook page:

It's been a great run of 31 years. All good things have come to an end, and this will most likely be the last month of us running Peach Farm Restaurant. We want to send a huge thank you for those who supported us through the ups and downs, especially through the crucial time during COVID. We also want to thank all the people that have worked for us throughout all the years. This is a bittersweet moment for us, but it's for the best. Let's make the last week or two left special. Hope to see all the familiar faces beforehand. Thank you again for the unconditional support that you have for us.
