Think fresh at Salsa Grille
I had the pleasure of enjoying a lunch at Salsa Grille recently. In case you haven’t heard, Salsa Grille is the brainchild of Chris Rongos, part owner of George’s International Market on Broadway.

When the weather turns, I get a hankering for a warm bowl of soup. Here are some of my favorites from local restaurants. Biaggi’s Lobster Corn Chowder I know it sounds decadent, or maybe even sacrilegious to put Lobster in soup, but a bo …
