December 29th 2019: Bootleg Special and Taiyaki NYC, Boston

For brunch this morning, we decided to have brunch at Bootleg Special, a bar restaurant in Boston. Pretty nondescript from the outside, but really nice on the inside.

For food, we decided to get the Strawberries and Cream Souffle Pancakes (airy and fluffy)

and the Bootleg Benedict (melange of lobster, crab and crawfish mixed in spicy bootleg sauce).

The pancakes were extremely fluffy and tasty, especially with the syrups provided. The sauce for the benedict tasted just like it would with Chili Crab, just not spicy. Excellent meal, to say the least. Will come back to try their dinner fare someday.

Later in the afternoon, while in the now very developed Seaport area of Boston,

we decided to check out Taiyaki NYC, a Japanese ice cream shop with many branches nearby. My other half got the Taiyaki Cone with Custard Filling with Matcha (Green Tea) and Hojicha (roasted matcha) ice cream with Graham crumbs and coconut flakes,

                             
Pretty good, especially because of the unique cone.
