On the last day of Boston, I was getting really tired of sandwiches and catered lunches from the conference. I was craving something fresh, something blended, something in the form of a smoothie. Being in a downtown area, I knew there must be a smoothie place, and I was right. A quick search of the area brought me to Mother Juice:

Long waits aside (I stood there for about 20 to 30 minutes, I guess the lunch rush was strong that day), I was pretty satisfied. The smoothies were just what I was looking for, and also just what I expected. I had the one with ginger, and D had the one with strawberries and bananas. They were completely organic, and although they might look like they contain very little volume, each cup was a full meal. And they were EXPENSIVE! I always forget the cost of being healthy…

I don’t think I’d go back though, because of the long waits and the price. I’d probably go to Whole Foods next time, because it’s in the same area and usually has some sort of juice/smoothie option.

It does seems like there’s a common theme on this trip (in my life??), where I get tired of something and have to find something new to try.

This post is the first of six posts, documenting the last eats of the past 2 weeks in Boston and Orlando.

The day cannot start without coffee:

It wasn’t hard to find a coffee place in the Backbay area of Boston, a few different options came up and they were all within walking distance of the hotel. I ended up choosing Pavement Coffee, because according to the internet, they had the best latte artists. I ordered the latte, and a very standard blueberry muffin. The coffee came out - I wasn’t disappointed by the latte art, but how was the coffee itself?

After having burnt Starbucks coffee from the lobby and airport for the past couple of days, this coffee was the smoothest kick of caffeine. It could have been stronger, and it could have been served faster, but I was happy enough to come back on another day.

The 2nd time I visited, I had the granola and yogurt with fruit, which was very filling and fresh. The other patrons of the cafe were having the sandwiches, which smelled great, and might be worth trying if I ever came here for vacation. Eating too heavily before work is not a good idea for me anyways.

Staying slightly hungry makes me work a little bit harder.
