Visiting the Allens

The highlight of every trip to New England is a visit to the Allens - Kate, John, Sophia, Amelia, Olive & Sabine (the last 2 are cats)

The girls had a great time dressing up & generally run around the house.

The adults, with the aid of a baby-sitter, went to Blue Ginger - Ming Tsai's restaurant out in Wellesley

We had a gorgeous with dishes like foie gras-shittake shumai in sauternes-shallot sauce, sake-miso marinated Alaska butterfish, lamb osso buco claypot with herb-poblano pesto and seared Georges bank scallops with carrot-ginger sauce.

Can we go back there now?
