While my brother and my friend went to a wine and food festival (I tried to buy tickets but was too late), I went to a nearby restaurant. I found Banyan. It was really busy but I was able to get a seat near the kitchen, which was quite visible from the eating area. It was neat since I could watch them prepare and cook the food. The restaurant and the festival was in Boston MA.
The wine and food festival was on 03/03/2018. I will try to get tickets for next years one before they are sold out. It sold out really quickly.
I like the name since it is simple and easy to remember.
I ordered the Chinese creamed spinach. It was warm and delicious. I really enjoyed it. It was really good on the bread. It reminded me of nand bread from an Indian restaurant. It was not too big.
Some places are way too big. One would eat it but not have room for the entree. I think it should be small in that it 'whets' the appetite. Some places just makes it too big. It is one of my pet peeves.
I ordered the Kung Pao Shrimp. It was delicious. I liked it It was so big that it made me feel stuffed. It had just the right amount of rice. I liked how it had some vegetables with it.
This is the green tea cheesecake. It was just the right size for desert. It was really good. I really enjoyed it.
This is the view I had of the cooking area. It can be seen from the eating area. It does not show anyone in it but there was at least a couple of people there preparing and cooking food. I was also near where the waiters got the food and took it to the customers / patrons.
This is me at the restaurant. I am glad I went there. I can understand why it is so busy. It is very popular with people. It wasn't a huge place but there was a lot of seating. I used the restroom before eating and it was nice and clean.
I had a diet Coke. I don't drink alcohol. It would be nice if restaurants had other diet soda choices than just cola (being a diabetic, I try to limit my sugar intake and most regular soda has a lot of sugar in it).
Here is the outside of the restaurant. I was looking around for a place to eat while waiting for my brother and our friend. I did not see much in the area but I did notice the above. It looked interesting. I read the menu on the outside. The food choices looks interesting.

As one can see, I am not a young fellow. I am a big guy which is why this blog is called Big Guy Eating. I am not a skinny guy either.
My online store for selling my art on different items.
I plan on creating more art to put on items for sale.
