THE THIRST IS REAL: BOSTON’S PREMIER COCKTAIL CONFERENCE STAYS FIERCELY LOCAL WHILE EXPANDING

Written by ERIC TWARDZIK Posted April 26, 2019 Filed Under: DigThis, Drinks, LIFESTYLE

“It just seemed like the right time to find some partners and create one that showcased the Boston hospitality industry. It’s grown to encompass a little bit more of New England, so we try to do outreach and work with bartenders in all of the other New England states.”

DIRTY OLD BOSTON: THE WARD 8

Written by JIM BOTTICELLI Posted March 30, 2019 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dirty Old Boston, Drinks, LIFESTYLE, Restaurants

Pore through the pages of any cocktail history tome and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a distinctive contribution to the art that is Boston’s and Boston’s alone. The Ward 8, however, is a drink that did originate here, specifically at the long-gone Locke-Ober restaurant on Winter Place (in the spot currently known as Yvonne’s).

DIRTY OLD BOSTON: MISSING JIMMY’S

Written by JIM BOTTICELLI Posted March 30, 2019 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Dirty Old Boston

Jimmy’s, which first opened as the Liberty Cafe and was eventually renamed after its owner, had little competition until 1963, when Anthony’s Pier 4 was opened by restaurateur Anthony Athanas.

DEEP ELLUM: AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE FOR BEER AND COCKTAIL LOVERS

Written by MARC HURWITZ Posted August 1, 2018 Filed Under: Drinks, Eats, LIFESTYLE

The word “gastropub” gets bandied about way too often these days, but this Cambridge Street establishment is in some ways your classic gastropub that’s worthy of the title, and one that’s more unpretentious and unassuming than some of the newer options out there.

TERMS OF SERVICE: SOME HARD TRUTHS FROM BEHIND THE BAR ABOUT HANDLING DRUNKEN PATRONS

Written by HALEY HAMILTON Posted August 7, 2017 Filed Under: COLUMNS, News

There does need to be some accountability when it comes to responsibly serving alcohol. But the real question is, “Who is being held responsible?” And, “Are they even the right individuals?”

TERMS OF SERVICE: HOW TO ORDER A DRINK PROPERLY

Written by HALEY HAMILTON Posted June 13, 2017 Filed Under: COLUMNS, Drinks, LIFESTYLE

This is the sole definition of “martini”. A drink of any other ingredients that comes in a triangular-shaped glass with a stem does not, by virtue of its vessel, become a martini; a certain shaped glass does not a certain cocktail make.

"There are [Metaxas] where if I poured you a shot of it, it’s basically like a rum and a sherry: a really beautiful smell, aromatic and complex, dry and nutty on the palate."
