August 25th 2021: Lunch in Revere, Dessert in Cambridge

 Today, while in the Greater Boston area, we decided to get lunch at Dryft in Revere, which we visited a few months back. This time, we sat in a different area of the restaurant.

This time, we got the SAILOR’S DELIGHT (St. George Citrus Vodka, orgeat, lemon juice, basil simple syrup, strawberry puree, soda water)

the SEAFOOD PLATTER (oysters, clams, lobster, shrimp),

the GRILLED OCTOPUS (mashed potatoes, spinach, chorizo vinaigrette),

the EARTH BOWL (quinoa, kale, peppers, sugar snap peas, corn, brussels sprouts, goat cheese crumble, avocado, lemon vinaigrette),

the CHICKEN “UNDER A BRICK” (mashed potatoes, brussels sprouts, chicken jus)

and the Coconut Panna Cotta with Pineapple Jam for dessert.

The drink was alright, although I did not like the cherry flavor to it. Everything else was excellent, the octopus not being too tough, going extremely well with the chorizo sauce, the lemon vinaigrette in the salad blending well with the flavor of the brussels sprouts and quinoa, the chicken being crispy yet moist, and the panna cotta not being too sweet to allow for the pineapple to shine.

After another delicious meal at this place, we decided to check out an ice cream place in Cambridge, the Honeycomb Creamery.

We got the Jasmine and Sea Salt Ganache, Pistachio Rose, Horchata, Honey Lavender flavors with Honeycomb Candy.

Nice presentation, but the flavors tasted really weird. Not going back again.
