    A friend and I had a lovely lunch at Ma Maison today. Even though we are both long time Boston residents this was our first time there. Our waitress was wonderful as were the other staff including the maitre d who accomodated my request for a different table away from the heat vent. It was not rushed, it was not noisy (just lively enough) and we thoroughly enjoyed our food. It really did feel like we were in Paris because everything was yummy and we could linger without any pressure to turn over our table. Merci!!

    I haven't been to Aquitaine for over 15 years, so it was such a joy to go there for lunch and reminisce about all the wonderful meals I had there when I lived in the South End. It was a treat to go on a weekday when it was quiet and I thoroughly enjoyed my Croque Madame with a glass of Sparkling Rose while mentally planning a future visit.
