My friend and I started out this morning in Danvers,
grabbing a delicious Roast Beef Sandwich 3 Way (cheese, mayo, BBQ sauce) from
Prime Roast Beef and Pizza, a fast food like place,
and another meal at
Blu Karma, a small Japanese place in town,
getting the Malaysian Roti Canai with Curry Sauce
and the Red Spider Roll (soft shell crab tempura maki topped with tuna and tobiko drizzled with una balsamic syrup).
Unfortunately, the curry was too sweet for my liking, while the crab itself was stale and powdery. Never coming back here again.
From here, it was on to the town of Middleton,
where we grabbed a dozen macarons from
Tara Leigh Cakes
that were a little on the hard side but delicious.
Beverly was next,
where we grabbed another meal at
Calibasil, another fast food like place serving Vietnamese food.
We got the Mango Lychee Iced Tea
and the Pho with Brisket and Meatballs.
Not bad actually.
Next, we checked out the
American Legion Post 113 in Manchester,
the
Tedesco Country Club in Marblehead
and the
Gannon Golf Club in Lynn.
Finally, we ended up in Wakefield,
where our final meal of the day was at
Massimo's Ristorante, an Italian place in town.
We got the Chicken and Shrimp Al Tartufo (sauteed with wild mushrooms in truffle butter and cheese, served with fontina cheese and mushroom stuffed tortellini),
which came with a side salad,
and the Tiramisu for dessert.
I liked the meal, but ambience wise,
Porto Bello was better. With that, a day of checking out places north of Malden came to an end.
