View from lunch - Hanover St.: Tempted as we were to have lunch at one of the usual places in the North End, we tried something new for us. Ristorante Damiano. Front was open to the street - nice breeze. Food served as Piattini - Smaller portions meant to be shared. Had a nice wine list - found a tasty Montepulciano. Sent from my mobile

Bad Lunch on American Airlines ORD-BOS: Choice between a Cheeseburger and a Green Salad with Chicken. In all seriousness - this was the worst *cheeseburger* I’ve ever had. Ever. The meat didn’t look like beef. I’m not sure that it resembled ANY meat. The texture was off and it had no flavor. I may as well have been eating cardboard. Blech. Dear American Airlines - I’ve had a couple of bad meals in 1st Class on your planes, but this one takes the cake. Just offer me a pizza or a beef sandwich, ok? And also please stop offering a choice of chicken or turkey on so many flights - fowl or fowl? Really? Kthxbai. Sent from my mobile
