Well, quite fortunately, you are moving to an area that is inhabited with
one of the great chile-head chefs of our time, Chris Schlesinger (I have
posted many times about his cookbooks and his food). He is in Cambridge, MA
and owns the East Coast Grill, Jake and Earl's Dixie Barbecue, and one other
place, whose name I can't remember (the Blue Room, or something). I have
never eaten at his restaurants, but his cookbooks (John Willoughby is
co-author) are exceptional, and I have read his menus, which also sound
fantastic. Chris is originally from the same place as me, Tidewater, VA, by
the way.
Also, Ming Tsai's restaurant, Blue Ginger, is in Wellesley, MA -- he's been
known to eat a chile or two....
And, look at it this way -- you may be giving up some excellent chile-head
food in Texas, but you are gaining Fenway Park.
Matt

Help, Northeastern chileheads!
What's the hot stuff prospects like in the Boston area? Looks like I have
to move that way in a few weeks and I know nothing about anything up there,
except that it's a far cry from Texas where I'm at now. Any and all leads
and advice would be appreciated. (BTW, I'll be working in Cambridge. God
knows where I'll be living.)
Help!
