Sourdough Starter

Does anyone know of a good bakery in Quincy or the surrounding area that makes sourdough bread and may be donate some starter? I have made it before but it died and I’m pressed for time to make a new one

Best Somerville restaurants with VEGAN options

I've spent the last few months going through restaurant menus around Boston looking for all the places with good or at least some vegan options. This is what I've got for Somerville:

  • Dosa N Curry. Vegetarian but with 29 (!!) vegan dishes all labeled on the menu. Every dosa and uthappam is vegan, plus the curries and an Impossible kebab (literally never seen that before). And to top it off they have vegan pizza. I've also never seen that at an indian restaurant before.
  • Koshari Mama. Egyptian vegan cuisine - super unique! Koshari, mushroom shawarma, falafel, fried ckn tenders.
  • Life Alive. 100% Vegetarian but most items are vegan. It's a chain. Healthy vibes.
  • Saigon Tiger. Two vegan tofu bowls (rice/noodle) plus veggie sides and they specify they have vegan dressing for the salads.
  • Diesel Cafe. They have a gorgeous vegan club sandwich that has roasted tofu, avocado, tempeh bacon, and sriracha mayo. But that's basically the only option. But what an option it is...
  • Genki Ya. Sushi place with 20 vegan items. The color vegetables roll is mango, avocado, asparagus, carrot, cucumber and spinach. Their miso is made with veggie broth instead of dashi, which is something that can sometimes get you at sushi places. Couple locations in MA.
  • Pho n Rice. Massive Vietnamese menu. 17 dishes are vegan as written and a lot of others can be modified.
  • Sugidama. Japanese soba and izakaya, a number can be made vegan, plug maki (Pickle Me maki!).
  • Noor Mediterranean Grill. Okay if you just want hummus, pita, baba ghanoush.
  • American Flatbread. Candlepin bowling place where I accidentally booked a TABLE to eat at rather than a lane to bowl, but turns out they have flatbreads with vegan cheese.
  • Eat Greek. Normal greek food so falafel, hummus, etc
  • NU Kitchen. Only a few vegan items but one of them is an A+ breakfast sandwich: JUST Egg, vegan mozzarella, pickled red onion, and chipotle mayo.
  • Revival Cafe + Kitchen. Boston area chain. They have a lunch wrap called Slaw & Order which looks unique but doesn't have a protein.
  • Dave's Fresh Pasta. Grocery with a hot counter. They have a vegan veggie hummus wrap and Hippie Salad that comes with tamari tahini.

Menus / vegan options come from getfarro.com which is the site I'm building to map vegan options at every restaurant around Boston. Hope this list helps you find a new place!

Truck crashed into house, corner of Sea St & Quincy Shore Dr

Traffic is a zoo there with multiple inner street closures. Lots of emergency vehicles & tow trucks. News chopper flying overhead. The crashed truck is very crumpled, must’ve been going very fast

Rallying/Practicing Tennis Partner?

Started playing tennis about a month or two ago and it’s been super fun. I’m around a 2.5 level and looking for people in the Quincy area who’d be down to rally/practice and get better.

I usually play with my girlfriend, but she’s been super busy with work lately, so I’m looking for some other people to hit with. Nothing too serious , just looking to get some reps in and improve. I can bring plenty of balls too.

Let me know if anyone’s interested!

HELP! Need wedding venues advice for fall 2027 under 45k

Hi all-

This is my first ever post in Reddit so bear with me!

My fiancée (30M) and myself (30F) are looking for a venue with food and open bar for under 45k with taxes for around 140 people! This does not include photography, flowers, DJ, makeup, hair etc. I feel so blessed with the amount I’m able to spend but feel at a loss.

I really do not like a barn vibe and the first estate venue I went to was not really at all what I envisioned. It was older and smaller than the pictures (go figure….).

The venues I do like (willowdale,tupper manor, delamar,Blithewold, and misselwood to name just a few) only have limited dates or none at all for 2027.

Looking for anyone who has booked for this year or 2027 and can recommend some venues that aren’t typically front and center on the Knot or WeddingWire+ within the budget above. Open to NH, ME, MA, and CT(only if less than 2.5 hour drive from Boston)

Any bars with pool tables open late that isn’t Presidential Pub?

Got some people coming to visit and wanting to play pool, Olindy’s isn’t open late enough and while Prezzys has its charm, I don’t think my guests would be that comfortable with the atmosphere

Xfinity Internet out. Anyone else?

**Finally back up at 3:20pm.
Been out since 845am🙄
And since it was from a “Power Outage”, that doesn’t qualify for a Credit. WTF

Just woke up and my Xfinity Internet is out.
And I get a text from them saying it’ll be out till at least 11:50AM.
I swear this is the 3rd outtage from Xfinity this month!!
Need to WFH too.
In the QC area.

*12:30pm and still out. Going to claim a credit on the Xfinity app.
What BS

Donuts & Donuts - never again

Ham egg and cheese, $7.31. Sorry, took a bite before the photo.

That's the worst thing I've put in my mouth in 2026 and I actually paid to have it done to me.

Spare yourselves.

Progressive Mass DA Questionnaire

Deitch, Lee, and Perkins completed it. Some of the rest filled out other chapters. Really long answers with a lot of details. It's a good resource to get to know candidates better.

Three chapters (Progressive Brookline, Neponset Valley Progressives, and Progressive Mass Western Norfolk County) have all endorsed Djuna Perkins

Anybody know what happened from the fight at Pinnacle Dispensary on Liberty yesterday?

Drove past as a first fight was happening in the parking lot to the dispensary. Old dude was on the ground and at least 4-5 people were involved. Everybody was white btw. I was thinking about pulling in to watch but it devolved from a fist fight to body slams into cars and onto pavement as I was driving away so I hope everyone's still alive.
