The latest issue of
Boston Magazine is on the news stands with my pictures from Area Four,
Michael Leviton's latest restaurant in Technology Square. I'm ashamed to
say that I hadn't been there prior to the photo shoot, but one bite
into the mac and cheese and I realized what a truly grave error that had
been.
I should back up a moment and say that the thought of dining out when you have a one-year old and a three-year old is fraught with trepidation and anxiety. Gone are the days of romantic evenings and fine dining. Those childless dates are replaced with a new set of values in restaurant dining – fast, kid-friendly and ultimately, almost unavoidably, mediocre. Fast-forward back to Michael Leviton's mac and cheese. Here was a place with amazing adult food that I could also imagine my girls tucking right into. In fact I text-messaged the wife and told her to pack up the daughters and meet me at A4 for dinner that night. Do I need to say it was a huge success and a delicious time was had by all.
