HUGE SLICES TO GO AT CITIZEN CRUST'S SLICE BAR

Citizen Crust
Patriot Place 
Foxboro, MA

Citizen Crust operates a full restaurant at Patriot Place in Foxboro, but their pizza is so good that they've opened a slice bar for people to grab slices on the go. Check out their Slice Bar, where they offer Roman sheet pizza, large slices with an extra crispy crust.

The Citizen Mac Daddy slice is my favorite. It's like a cheeseburger on a pizza. It's topped with ground beef, a special sauce, cheddar, mozzarella, tomato, shredded lettuce, chopped onion and pickles. Amazingly good. I also enjoyed one of their new slices, the Broad Street Bully. This one comes with shaved steak,. caramelized onions, jalepeno and cheddar. There are also more traditional slices like cheese and pepperoni, along with veggie and Margherita of Savoy slices which are meatless.

El Mariachi 
Wareham, Ma
(with several other locations)

Clam strips, fries and clam chowder. I enjoy them every time I take a day trip to the Cape, but recently I was craving something different. So, I checked out El Mariachi on Main Street in Wareham.

El Mariachi's menu is packed full of traditional Mexican favorites. Burritos, enchiladas, fajitas, salads, tacos, soups along with several steak, seafood, chicken and pork dishes. Every meal starts with a heaping basket of chips and mild salsa, which they will happily refill. I enjoyed the Mariachi #2 combo plate, with a chicken enchilada and beef burrito along with rice and beans. It was delicious and filling. There are also several vegetarian dishes. Their kids menu includes enchiladas and burritos, along with grilled cheese and chicken fingers for kids who have not discovered the how wonderful Mexican food is just yet.

El Mariachi also offers many margaritas, along with specialty drinks like pina coladas and a tequila sunrise. Desserts include a caramel apple burrito, churros and deep-fried ice cream.

El Mariachi has a hand full of other locations including Yarmouth, Taunton, South Easton and East Providence, RI.

JIMMY BUFFETT'S MARGARITAVILLE IS COMING TO BOSTON!

Fins up, Boston!
Boston will soon be wasting away again in Margaritaville. Jimmy Buffett's restaurant is set to open its newest location in Faneuil Hall later this year. If you've never been, Margaritaville offers summer-inspired fare like fish tacos, Caribbean chicken egg rolls and Lava Lava Shrimp. There are salads, sandwiches and a bunch of burgers including, of course, a Cheeseburger in Paradise, named after one of Buffett's biggest hits. The drink menu is packed with frozen concoctions like margaritas, specialty boat drinks and Landshark beer.

The chain usually drops anchor in year-round sunny spots and tropical vacation destinations. Still, they are giving it a go in Boston. Maybe it will be a nice oasis during one of our many winter snow storms. While new to Boston, Margaritaville is no stranger to New England. There was a location at Mohegan Sun for about decade which closed in 2018.
