=====Thing to do when you visit us in New England===== ====Eat==== You can get good food of almost any flavor in the Boston area. The only exception is Mexican food. Jerusha, being from Arizona, is very picky, and will not bestow her favor on any Mexican restaurants in Boston (yet). New England has great seafood, and there are a million places to get a good lobster. In addition to all of those places, here are a few of our favorites. Little India - Waltham\\ A tapas bar in Waltham on Moody Street the I can't remember right now\\ Union Oyster House\\ Asmara Restaurant (Ethiopian) - Cambridge - http://www.asmararestaurant.com/\\ Elephant Wok (Cambodian) - Cambridge\\ Woodman's (Fried Clams, Lobster) - Essex\\ Friends Restauant (Portuguese) - Lowell\\ Vietnameese place by Jerusha's school in Chinatown\\ Armenian place in Watertown that Guen took us to\\ ====Boston Area==== Things to do and see around Boston that are not actually in the city.
