July 28th 2019: Peaches and Kites

This morning, we went to Smolak Farms in North Andover to pick peaches. Pretty good ones at that.

Later in the afternoon, we decided to head to NARA Park in Acton for the Kite Flying Festival occurring there.

We did not fly any because we had to buy one to do so, so we just walked around to see the goings on.

For dinner, we headed to Rapscallion Table and Tap, a bar restaurant in town with a small dining area.

For food, we got the Blackened Chicken (Seasoned thighs, mango rice- diced mango, cilantro, braised collard greens),

the Salmon Burger (Panko-breaded fresh ground salmon, shallots, capers, lemon zest, fresh herbs, lettuce, tomato, housemade avocado aioli) and House Salad (Apricot sherry vinaigrette, carrots, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, red onions).

The chicken looked burnt, but instead it was just peppery, with sweet collard greens and interestingly flavored mango rice. The salmon burger was pretty good too, along with the salad. Can see why this place was full of people by the time we left. With that, an end to a day of peaches and kites.
