August 4th 2018: Spending Our Day in Waltham and Newton

After visiting the Waltham Public Library this morning,

We went to Cook, a pretty upbeat brunch place in Newton for some food,

Getting the Moroccan Mint Tea (Green),

The Shakshouka (baked eggs, spicy tomato, tzatziki, muhammara, cucumber olive relish, mini pitas),

The Lobster Slider (mayo, lemon, tarragon)

And the Crispy Shrimp Taco (avocado, red onion, aji crema).

Except for the tea, which was just alright, everything else was just fantastic, the Mediterranean  flavors in the Egg dish, the crispness of the lobster bun and the onions perfecting the flavor of the taco. Glad we chose this place for brunch.

Next, after a day shopping at the Chestnut Hill Mall in town,

we decided to get some ice cream from Morano Gelato,

getting the Nocciola (Hazelnut) and Strawberry flavors.

Both were really tasty, being made with actual ingredients. Definitely worth coming back to try other flavors.
