...stylish restaurant has become a favorite among the city's affluent diners, who visit for the oxtail-and-marrow risotto, the yellowfin tuna enveloped in white radish or the prawn salsa that spices up the chilled soups. Unhappily though, demand for the rooms has been slack. Even though bombings and sporadic outbreaks of fighting between the Sri Lankan army and the Tamil Tigers rarely affect tourists directly, they have understandably dampened tourism, forcing Fernando to offer his 10 suites at discounted prices, beginning at $200 per night. But he is optimistic that peace will eventually come, and the guests soon...
...quality of the ingredients and preparation have more in common with SoHo's better bistros than its fast food joints. The braised U.S. short-rib and truffle burger ($35) comes plated in an elegant open-faced tower of foie gras, green beans and shemeji mushrooms. The braised Wagyu oxtail and Iberian chorizo burger ($28), topped with Manchego and mushrooms, is slightly less rich, but presented with equal flourish...
...five-course dinner using Massachusetts-grown foods on October 27 at ‘’Savor the Seasoning: An Autumn Dinner.” The dinner includes a smoked goat cheese and apple butter tart, creamed parsnip soup, grilled beef club sirloin and red wine braised oxtail, and spiced pumpkin pot de creme with homemade maple-walnut semifreddo and cinnamon biscotti. The dinner costs $100 per plate, but the proceeds are being donated to the nonprofit Federation of Massachusetts Farmers’ Markets. EVOO offers a seasonal menu with fall-themed items on other nights as well...

"Nine out of 10 times fancy descriptions are just trying to cover up ordinary food." The only thing ordinary about Pern's pub is the language on the menu. The lunch card changes daily...
...nuggets of foie gras that explode in the mouth under the gentlest pressure of teeth. The gnocchi2 are feather-light, without any of the gumminess that often weighs them down under less skillful hands. This is a decadent dish—layers of flavor unfold with each bite. The Oxtail Risotto ($16) is nearly as good, enriched with unctuous marrow and sprinkled with black truffles. It was perfectly al dente, each grain of rice still resistant in the center, although perhaps a little too much so for American tastes accustomed to overcooked pasta. The Crispy Sweetbreads ($15) were the only...
