February 24th 2020: More Pizza from Village Pizza, Shrewsbury

 Today, we got takeout from Village Pizza in Shrewsbury, this time getting the Tomato Pizza.

Pretty good from this place as always.

February 23rd 2020: Worcester Public Market, Worcester

 Today, we decided to check out the new Worcester Public Market in Worcester, a shopping area with a food court,

getting the Basil Rigatoni (pomodoro, basil, young pecorino) from Pasta Mani

and the Build It Yourself Burger with Beyond Burger, Tomatoes, Avocado, fried onion strings and pineapple from New England Burger Bah,

Looking fancy, but nothing special overall.

February 19th 2020: Yet Another Company Lunch at Via Italian Table, Worcester

Today, we had a company lunch for a colleague who is leaving the department at Via Italian Table in Worcester. This time, we got the Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail for appetizers,

and I got the Chicken Orzo Soup

and the Grilled Prime Bistro Steak (red wine braised Tuscan potatoes, garlicky spinach and pepperonata).

The soup was just so-so, and the flavor of the steak was not really to my liking either, because of the peppers.

February 17th 2020: Breakfast at Denny's, Worcester

Today, we decided to have breakfast at Denny's in Worcester, getting the Loaded Veggie Omelette (Fresh spinach, sautéed mushrooms, sautéed zucchini & squash, tomatoes and Swiss cheese. Served with hash browns and choice of bread).

Not bad, but nothing extraordinary.

February 15th 2020: Eating Out in Leominster

Today while at the Mall at Whitney Field in Leominster, we decided to have lunch at the food court here, getting a pizza from Primo Pizzeria,

 and Orange Chicken and Lo Mein from Golden Wok.

Nothing special from either place. For dinner, we decided to give the little one a treat after his fall  at the McDonald's at 340 New Lancaster Road in town and ER visit to the Leominster campus of the UMass Memorial Hospital,

getting the Small Fries, the Chicken McNuggets, the McChicken and the Chicken McGriddle.

Nothing special, but at least my little one enjoyed his meal.

February 14th 2020: 435 Bar and Grille, Leominster

Today for dinner, we decided to check out the 435 Bar and Grille in Leominster, a pretty nice restaurant located within an old mill.

We got the Margherita Pappardelle (sauteed chicken, grape tomatoes, baby spinach, fresh basil & oregano in a light garlic butter sauce topped with fresh mozzarella),

the Baked Stuffed Haddock (crab stuffed filet of haddock finished in a lemon butter sauce served with mashed potatoes & asparagus)

and the Shepherds Pie Stuffed Acorn Squash (roasted acorn squash stuffed with ground beef, onions, celery, carrots & peas topped with parmesan mashed potatoes).

The shepherd's pie was an interesting concept, bu overall, all the dishes were just so-so. Don't think I want to come back again, At least they had complimentary chocolate covered strawberries at the end though.

February 12th 2020: Woosta Pizza, Worcester

Today for lunch, it was more pizza takeout from Woosta Pizza in Worcester, which is a surprisingly roomy restaurant instead of a hole in the wall takeout place.

I got the Philly Steak & Cheese (Shaved Porterhouse steak, cheddar cheese, American cheese, salt and black pepper. White pizza),

which was sadly really bland. Definitely not coming back again.
