restaurant tips

For great Italian food, head over to the North End, where there are many good restaurants. We like La Summa on Fleet Street---family owned, homemade sauce and pasta. Every time we%26#39;re in town, we make it a point to have at least one meal there. Also, in the North End is Regina%26#39;s on Thatcher Street for great pizza--thin, hand-tossed crust, baked in a coal-fired oven. If you do decide to go to Regina%26#39;s, just note that if you go during peak meal times, the line is literally out the door.

For seafood, I like Legal Seafood--although it is now a chain, it got its start in Inman Square in Cambridge. We%26#39;ve also tried Jasper White%26#39;s Summer Shack by the Pru. I liked their lobster roll and my husband thought that their clam chowder was as good as Legal%26#39;s. Some think that the Summer Shack is too touristy--perhaps--but it is reasonably priced.
