Teen dies in crash north of La Junta
Published On: Jan 15 2014 06:25:35 PM CST
A 19-year-old from La Junta is dead after a crash on Highway 109 north of town.
The accident happened about five miles north of La Junta at 11:50 a.m. on Wednesday, January 15, 2014.
The Colorado State Patrol says that Ashley Abel was driving a Gold 2000 Ford Explorer south on the highway when the SUV went off the road. Troopers say the vehicle continued driving a half a mile into an open field before rolling multiple times.
Troopers say Abel was not wearing a seat belt. She was thrown from the SUV and killed.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.

There were definitely more than 200 women in those areas, and they had to have had a name pool of over 175 names. Therefore, the geniza -- though extremely valuable in a lot of ways -- isn't something I can consider exhaustive. Since I don't really care for most of the names recorded in the geniza, moreover, it is not going to be my resource. What I should have said was that the chief (ahem, kind of 'only') name source on the Gabriel site, for a Jewish woman living in the Arab world, is the Cairo geniza. The geniza is the one with the 175 female names et cetera. The Gabriel site has more, of course, but no more directly, demonstrably applicable to Jewesses living in Yemen. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- D'vorah, mka Judith Epstein Master Albrecht Waldfurster's Egg Middle Kingdom, Midlands, Ayreton, Tree-Girt-Sea (Chicago, IL) judith at ipstenu.org -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Our latest teaser concerned the reign of Sir Alex only.
We were looking for players whose surnames begin and end with the same letter who have played for the boss in the first-team at United.
By our reckoning, there's six and none of them is a single letter name such as Anderson, Nani etc.
Well done to Cesta who appeared to be first to name the lot on the Talking Reds forum.
The answers are Sylvan Ebanks-Blake, Jonathan Greening, Tomasz Kuszczak, Alex Notman, Ryan Shawcross and Paul Scholes.
Look out for another puzzle next Friday.

A used book store sounded like a good idea, so that's where I am for now. I just hadn't counted on a recession or E-readers and am a little afraid there's going to be a third act. In the meantime, I have plenty to read and a little time to write. Not a bad way to spend a day.

Hi All
Do any schools do this in house? I have been asked to look for a system which is portable, and dosnt cost the earth.
From a quick google there are loads of systems out there, and also from what I can tell you don't need any formal qualification to be able to do this?? Is this correct?? Granted there are courses which you can go on, which give you a nice A4 certificate at the end saying you have spent x amount of hundreds of pounds to get this A4 certificate but it was pointless and just a day out of the office..

November 26, 2014
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- A new federal report shows Illinois has lost nearly 1,800 farms, though an increase in the state's agricultural acreage perhaps reflects consolidation.
The findings come from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's farming census conducted every five years. The latest figures are as of 2012.
The report shows the number of farms statewide fell by 1,773 to 75,087 between 2007 and 2012. But the farm acreage rose to 26.94 million, up more than 162,000 acres.
The census also showed that the average size of an Illinois farm climbed by 11 acres, to 359.
Nationwide, the report says the number of farms slip 4.3 percent to 2.1 million, with the total amount of agricultural land relatively flat at 922 acres.
The report is used in evaluating and implementing agriculture policies and programs.

Langebaan : Accommodation, Activities, Restaurants & Points Of Interest
Langebaan lagoon (credits)
Langebaan is a lagoon town, just over 100 km from Cape Town along the West Coast. This picture perfect village is popular for its lagoon, the rich carpet of spring wild flowers in August and September and seasonal whale spotting.
Langebaan's origins can be traced back ten million years to when it was a site where leaders of the Khoi nation regularly met. Earlier this century the biggest whaling station in the southern hemisphere was operational here but with its closure Langebaan has quietened into a seasonal holiday town and was popular with pensioners until the recent property boom.
The lagoon in Langebaan is home to over 360 species of birds and the town is an eco-attraction that draws visitors to windsurf, kitesurf and fish in its waters. The lagoon was zoned in 1976 as a protected area and later declared a National Park, originally to protect the birds. Recent concerns about over fishing mean that this protection can be extended to conserving stumpnose, steenjie, white steenbras and kob.

Product Description
"I could never myself believe in God, if it were not for the cross... In the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it?" With compelling honesty John Stott confronts this generation with the centrality of the cross in God's redemption of the world---a world now haunted by the memories of Auschwitz, the pain of oppression and the specter of nuclear war.
Can we see triumph in tragedy, victory in shame? Why should an object of Roman distaste and Jewish disgust be the emblem of our worship and the axiom of our faith? And what does it mean for us today?
Now from one of the foremost preachers and Christian leaders of our day comes theology at its readable best, a contemporary restatement of the meaning of the cross. At the cross Stott finds the majesty and love of God disclosed, the sin and bondage of the world exposed.
More than a study of the atonement, this book brings Scripture into living dialogue with Christian theology and the twentieth century. What emerges is a pattern for Christian life and worship, hope and mission.
Destined to be a classic study of the center of our faith, Stott's work is the product of a uniquely gifted pastor, scholar and Christian statesman. His penetrating insight, charitable scholarship and pastoral warmth are guaranteed to feed both heart and mind.
John R. W. Stott is known worldwide as a preacher, evangelist and communicator of Scripture. For many years he served as rector of All Souls Church in London, where he carried out an effective urban pastoral ministry. A leader among evangelicals in Britain, the United States and around the world, Stott was a principal framer of the landmark Lausanne Covenant (1974). His many books, including Why I Am a Christian and The Cross of Christ, have sold millions of copies around the world and in dozens of languages. Whether in the West or in the Two-Thirds World, a hallmark of Stott's ministry has been expository preaching that addresses the hearts and minds of contemporary men and women. Stott was honored by Time magazine in 2005 as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World."

JessicaAge: 25-34Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5In-Depth Look at the CrossApril 6, 2012JessicaAge: 25-34Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Simply read the title_ that's exactly what this book is about. In "The Cross of Christ" Stott discusses the purpose of the Cross, its effects, and how it should affect our lives today. He explains how the Cross worked to satisfy both God's love and justice. The depth of this book is amazing. Stott discusses theological theories that have come up through the years as to exactly what was done at the Cross. Were we truly justified? Or are we supposed to be moved to justify ourselves by our behavior? Did Jesus really take our punishment? Did He die to defeat Satan? How does any of this apply to me today? This book has it all.
I can't even begin to fully process this one after just one reading. This is a book I will read again and again. I think I'll see something new each time. There's just that much information. This is not a light read, though it is easily understandable. I think my favorite thing about this book is that the Conclusion actually summarizes (and even clarifies) the entire book very nicely. It's a great refresher of what you've been reading.

Demonstration cooking "class" at home? (Seattle)
I'd like to hire a chef to come to my home to prepare dinner for a birthday party celebration. It doesn't have to be a cooking class per se but it would be fun if the chef demonstrated a little and talked about the preparation, ingredients, etc. as he cooks our meal. Mostly I'm looking for a great cook that will prepare a meal at my house and help serve it to my guests. Any recommendations in Seattle?
How much are you looking to spend; how many guests will you have; what type of kitchen/serving area do you have? These are a few of the questions that will be asked to help determine whether you should have a working chef come to your home or if a capable culinary student would suffice. It also depends on what you'd like out of it. A chef will be able to talk about techniques and ingredients, but a cook might have to focus on the preparations more than the "show".
My friend did this for her birthday through Culinary Communion (.com). A chef/teacher came to her house and had a class. We all participated and then ate dinner together. it was a lot of fun and it was designed for her food interests, number of guests, etc. She has the right kitchen set up, too. I am sure you could make it as interactive as you would like. Highly recommended.
re: cocktailhour
I second Culinary Communion!
I would have to say avoid using a "culinary student" at all costs as they will typically bite off more than they can chew and get out on a limb with food they may not be familiar with....plus...are culinary students used to instructing while cooking etc???You COULD try a catering company but i think they will tend to be overly generic.....if you check my profile you can use the email address if you'd like some more information
How about the chef who owns In Celebration, Vida. She's also a course instructor at PCC. I think someone like her is just what you're looking for!
I know Jeremy Faber of 'Foraged and Found Edibles' is a trained chef and has been known to offer his culinary services when he's not out in the woods hunting. The only way to contact him that I know of is to visit his booth at either the U District or Ballard Farmers Markets.
the chef who teaches classes at northgate community center (and does wonderful market tours) may be able to help as he is an experienced teacher and demonstrator. contact there is monica wort (206)684-7080
Maybe check out Diane's Market Kitchen. I just checked out her cooking school in Post Alley a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if she makes 'house calls" but I talked to her briefly about the potential of a corporate event. See her website at

Going to Nova Scotia
Any suggestions on places we must to go eat at? I'll be flying into Halifax we have friends who live near Canning, NS. I know they will have some ideas of places but I would also like to take them out one night. thanks. I'm leaving July 15th.
Hey Janine, there are some great places to eat downtown Halifax; what sort of place are you looking for? If you want stylish, good food but at a big city price, you could try Seven on Grafton - www.sevenwinebar.com , or maybe Bish down on Bishops Landing. Let me know what sort of place you are looking for and I'll make some more detailed recommendations.
A word of warning, stay clear of the Hamachi Steakhouse. See my forthcoming review!
Bon Appetit!
I'm looking for great food, possibly something unique to Nova Scotia. I do love fish & seafood. I live in Toronto so there's alot of high end places here so that's not necessarily important, quality food is. I don't want to pay big city prices. ie. $40 for a main course. $30 or under would be preferable. No worries about the steakhouse, we have plenty here that I won't get a craving!
re: Janine
I don't know if they do this or not since I too live in TO but on a recent (ish) trip to the gulf coast there was a place encouraging you to go up to the fishing boats that just came in and see what kinda deal you could make. If you have friends who live in the area they could provide you with locations of said fishing boat docks and a means of cooking said sea foods.
Hey Janine,
Halifax has some great restaurants for you to sample with your friends.
My favourites are Fid (www.fidcuisine.ca), Il Mercato (www.il-mercato.ca) and Jane's on the Common (www.janesonthecommon.com).
Of the three Fid is my hands down favourite: they focus on local produce and seasonal dishes and frequently offer a tasting menu that comes paired with wines. I've been probably four times and have been wowed each visit. It is however the most expensive of the three. It's considered high end for Halifax, but depending on what you're used to in Toronto it may not seem that expensive. My recollection is that mains are between $20 and $30 and I think the tasting menu when I was there in May was about $90 a person (three courses). You would want a reservation here but should have no problem getting in with the amount of time you've got.
Il Mercato and Janes are more moderately priced and both have really high quality food. Il Mercato is Italian, Janes is more bistro. Neither take reservations and are usually really busy on weekends - but if you have a weeknight evening or don't mind waiting a bit for a table on the weekend they would be ideal. Janes is also great for brunch on the weekends.
I've been to Seven as mentioned above (only once though). I had a really good meal there, but my partner thought his was kind of uninteresting. They are a known for having a really extensive wine list if you're into that. I found the atmosphere a bit weird, a bit too clubby for my idea of a nice dinner out, but I went just with my partner, if you're going with a group that might be kind of enjoyable.
I don't know much about restaurants in the valley (where Canning is), but if all else fails the farmers markets are just coming into the main season ... perhaps you could get some fish as suggested above and some fresh veggies and have a big ole maritime cookout!
re: parleek
I have been to Fid only once and was somewhat disappointed. Maybe I caught them on a bad day but the dishes brought to our table were just not all that impressive. Yet the opinion of many is that it is the best restaurant in town so I probably need to give them another chance.
I never hesitate to recommend Il Mercato for a casual Italian meal -- it is perhaps my favorite place to eat in Halifax. Jane's, I think, is somewhat overrated. Been there a couple of times with OK food once and forgettable food the other. Plus the permanent crowds and the inevitable wait for a table turns me off. It is certainly popular and trendy though.
I still think the best food in town is to be had at Da Maurizio. I haven't been yet but also hear good things about the new Gio's, in the Prince George Hotel. One of my favorite places for good dependable food is the dining room at O'Carroll's.
In the Canning/Wolfville area there are a number of good places. Tempest in Wolfville gets a lot of attention -- Chef Michael Howell is on tap to do a James Beard dinner later this year in NYC -- but my experience there has been mixed, similar to that at Fid. Perhaps the expectation doesn't match reality. Acton's in Wolfville and Le Caveau at Grand Pre Winery just outside town are also good. If you are into microbrews, Paddys Pub in Wolfville makes their own beer and has a good menu as well, although obviously in a more casual style.
re: sherry f
Bish has a great wine list. The food can sometimes be brilliant, sometimes disappointing. If you're hungry, you'll usually need 3 courses -- some of their appetizers, particularly those with shellfish, are disappointingly small.
sherry f:
I will look forward to hearing your impression of BISH.
It effectively became our "home away from home" the last time we visited Halifax. Lets just say my attendance at the conference I was purportedly attending suffered after a glass of vino or two at lunch which may then extend into dinner....
Part of the attractiion was a fabulous server...Dinah I think.. who befriended us and we felt just right at home for the remainder of the week.
Greg B has certainly been there more recently and often than this Albertan has and can be...perhaps next year we'll get back to "God's Country"
re: Bob Mac
We went to Bish this weekend. It was a really lovely setting. I had three appetizers- Tuna tartare, Scallops tempura and some lamb on a crostini. The tuna and lamb were excellent although there was a heavy hand with the tempura and I ended up scraping it off and just eating the scallops. My husband had a shrimp "caesar" (beautiful presentation) and a porterhouse. Our friend both had the Ahi tuna main course. One had the portobello starter and the other minestrone. We all throughly enjoyed our dinner. They brought some complimentary squares after as we were to full for dessert. Not to be ingratious, they taseted like the "two-bite" versions that are available int he grocery stores. It was a very nice gesture though and in fairness to the restaurant we did not order dessert from the menu.
We will definitely be back when we visit Halifax again.
I concur with Bob Mac- the service was first-rate.
sherry f
Glad BISH satisfied.
We had made reservations there after seeing the OPENING SOON episode on Food TV for the day after our arrival late the previous evening.
Well we wandered down to Historic Properties and ended up skipping the conference and having lunch. We returned for dinner that evening and by week's end we were almost "family"...just kidding.
I remember they had terrific champagne glasses and we were drinking way too much New Zealand Sauvignon blanc..label was Nautilus.
Was nice to be able to sit in their small deck watching the waitstaff go retrieving the umbrellas that puffs of wind sent flying over the boardwalk into the harbour below.
I just returned from 2 weeks in Nova Scotia - you have to go to Piccolo Mondo on Argyle Street in Halifax - really good freshly made pasta, my 10 year old even loved his dish. Perfectly cooked wonderful pasta.
The ice cream at Cows on the Wharf by the water is soooo good. Very crowded and takes forever but worth it.
No matter where you go - it's expensive!
The best and simplest lobster roll we had was at Shaw's Landing in West Dover, right before you reach Peggy's Cove. Do not eat in Peggy's Cove - it is too crowded, and no parking - too many tourists. Go to Peggy's Cove to see the post office in the Lighthouse (the only one in the North Atlantic) but not to eat.
The lobster roll at Shaw's Landing is on a freshly baked baguette, it has a piece of romaine lettuce and a ton of lobster. It is sooo good and simple.
The other great meals we had were on Cape Breton, which you won't be near. That would take hours!
I'm sure your friends will have good suggestions but these were my favorite places.
Have a great time. What a great city!
re: RisaG
My family and I had dinner at Shaw's Landing and it was horrible. The lobster chowder was basically a bowl of ketchup with a few pieces of lobster meat. The bread was store-bought. The lobster roll again uses regular hot-dog bun not the top-split kind, and not grilled either. It's gotta less than half of lobster meat we got from a roll we bought at Jordan's Snack Bar at Ellsworth. My sea food platter was all deep fried and tasteless. Worst $90 I ever spent.
Your friends in Canning will likely take you to one of two places, maybe both. The first is the Tempest in Wolfville (http://www.tempest.ca). The second is the Port Pub (http://theportpub.com) in Port Williams. The Port is more casual but there's a great brewery on site, if you're a beer drinker. Michael Howell of the Tempest consulted on the menu here when they first opened a few years ago.

TEHRAN, Iran — Ayatollah Ali Khamenei unleashed a flurry of broadsides at the United States and other countries confronting his government over its nuclear program, saying Sunday that suggestions of a consensus against Iran were "a lie."
"There is no consensus against Iran. This is a lie by the U.S. and a few other U.S. supporters," said Khamenei, the country's supreme leader. "Some 116 member states of the Non-Aligned Movement supported Iran's brave achievements in nuclear technology. The consensus is among a few monopolist countries. Their consensus is of no value."

Simeon's Jabari Parker, Young's Linnae Harper named to McDonald's All-American team
February 14, 2013 11:08PM
Updated: February 21, 2013 7:27PM
Simeon senior Jabari Parker joined some elite company Thursday, becoming the fourth Wolverines player to be named to the McDonald's All-American team.
Parker joins Nick Anderson (1986), Deon Thomas (1989) and Derrick Rose (2007). He's the 61st player from Illinois to make the team and the 19th from the Public League.
''It's a great honor to selected to play in such a prestigious game," Parker said. ''It's one of the goals that I set for myself coming in to high school — to be a good enough player to be selected to the team.''
Parker's elementary school teammate at Black, Young's Linnae Harper, was named to the girls team. Harper played on the boys basketball team at Black.
The game is April 3 at the United Center.
Mount Carmel coach Mike Flaherty will coach the West Team, along with assistants Jasper Williams (Bloom's coach) and Brian Flaherty (Bremen's coach).
"This award reminds me that I am one step closer to the end of my high school career,'' Parker said. ''But I still have work to do to help Simeon win another state championship. That will be the icing on top."

- zeker1VIPDined on 11/25/2014Da Vinci was a great find before theatre. Lovely room with a friendly and competent staff. The menu was not large but, offered an adequate amount of varied items. I had a pasta dish ( a rich and tasty veal stew) and my wife had the fish special ( fluke with shrimp). Price point were reasonable and quantity sufficient. A very pleasant meal assured us that we will return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner a t DaVinci.LidiaVIPDined on 11/22/2014Food is always fresh and delicious. We are never disappointed when we dine here. We always bring friends who ask us to return with them again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My Birthday at DaVinciRestCriticDined on 11/22/2014My first time to Da Vinci and I would recommend this restaurant. Although a bit loud, the food was great and our waiter was fabulous. I will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great service....off night for foodmheadmomDined on 11/22/2014I can't say enough about the service. We were going to the Lyric Stage and the hostess had us call her as we were leaving the theater so that she could alert the valet. The Caesar salad and veal stew were both quite good. However, the pumpkin soup was watery and the Bolognese sauce was dry. We did tell our waiter and the chef sent someone over to chat with us and they did remove it from the bill.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MediocreOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 11/22/2014The quality of the food and rushed pacing just don't add up to the rating Da Vinci has as compared to other area restaurants (finding it high on overall list.) Portions are large, so maybe that's why people like it so much?
- amazing, service was incrediblecnoteDined on 11/20/2014The food was amazing and server was so helpful and nice will be coming too soonSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It was a great place for conversation.OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 11/18/2014A good place to have business meeting or a quality conversation with friends and co-workers. The variety of food is a wonderful since you can have meat or pasta or a combination.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- recommended!GpbostonDined on 11/15/2014We had the 5 course tasting menu and it was wonderful. It was also my birthday and the special touch with dessert was very nice. The service was excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great service, small portions.njgalinwtVIPDined on 11/14/2014Food was good. But portions were a bit small. Service was excellent. It's a nice romantic restaurant. Wish the dishes were just large, especially for an Italian placeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful dining experienceFoodieVIPDined on 11/8/2014Had dinner with a party of 4 based on the recommendation of friends. We were not disappointed. The venue is beautifully decorated and has a very European feeling. The service staff were fantastic and right on top of making sure we were well cared for from the moment we walked in until we left despite having a full restaurant with several large parties. The food was delicious. We shared two appetizers and each member of our party selected a different entree. Everything was beautifully prepared and presented. Try the Indian raviolli.Special Features:
- Chef PeppinovisaVIPDined on 11/8/2014what an amazing presentaton and creation my Peppino. The food is all cooked to order, fresh. His dish creations are incredible!!!!Special Features:
- outstandingDaVinciVIPDined on 11/7/2014We usually go into the North End for Italian food, but decided to try DaVinci in the South End. The whole experience, from valet parking, service, to excellent food was terrific. We had the tasting menu, which showcased small portions from the menu. Might have been nice to get something not on the menu, but overall, each dish was delightful. We'll go backSpecial Features:
- FabulousccduoDined on 10/30/2014We have lots of favorites in Boston but could not have had a better first-time dining experience than at DaVinci. From the mouth watering homemade hummus (like no other) to the Mussels, Lamb, Rigatoni Bolognaise, Pumpkin Mezza Luna, to the creative Tiramisu everything was delicious, made right there and made with care & a creative touch. Service was outstanding, atmosphere elegant but not stuffy and David at the bar took exceptional care of us - warm, friendly and professional. A great place for a special evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent !!!LynneS1981Dined on 10/28/2014Food was amazing. Service was fantastic! Great place for diner!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food and Glutan Free OptionskechalVIPDined on 10/25/2014The food was excellent and the majority of the menu is either gluten free or can be make that way (the chef makes his own gluten free pasta). We had apps of Arancini and Stuffed Prosciutto and both were excellent. For the mains we had Rigatoni Bolognese and Short Ribs and these also did not disappoint. Dessert was the Souffle' Al Cioccolato and was delicious. The wine list is good but not as extensive as other Boston restaurants. Service was okay but not great and below what I thought a restaurant of this quality should have. The waiter was always quickly running off and we had to wait too long to order a 2nd drink. It was a bit noisy and if you want a quite dinner this might not be the place. We would return and recommend.Special Features:
- Excellent dinner and servicejenngrenDined on 10/25/2014First time diners at this restaurant, we made a reservation prior to the Wine Riot event being held next door at the Castle this past Saturday (10/25/14). To say we were beyond thrilled with our choice in an understatement. Our dinner and the service was beyond wonderful. From the moment we sat down & saw the ingenious back-lit menus to the end of our night when the Chef table-touched and introduced himself - it was simply magnificent. We'll definitely be back & will recommend Da Vinci to friends and family. A+!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I'll be backGastronomicusDined on 10/25/2014Second time my wife and I have been here, were very happy both times. Menu provides a nice mix of traditional Italian with a little contemporary flair. Some interesting combinations that don't stray too far from what you might expect but everything was very good. If your looking for daring contemporary cuisine there's not any huge risks here. Nice wine list, haven't had the chance to thoroughly evaluate. Our waiter got a little overwhelmed but the manager made sure everything was up to par. Ambiance was nice although music was a little techno for the type of experience (although many restaurants do this). Great romantic night out with great food, very happy. Will be back.Special Features:
- Consistently outstandingKcchrisDined on 10/15/2014I have dined many times at Da Vinci's and always had wonderful experiences. I took 2 friends for dinner before the theater and we were delighted and surprised to learn we were given a 20% discount ! My friends who are more familiar with Back Bay restaurants are eager to return. The mussels were excellent and the fish specials are always outstanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great anniversary dinnerTubadan2000Dined on 10/13/2014Excellent restaurant for our 1st wedding anniversary. Masala raviolis and salmon were absolutely top notch. 5 star service as well. Will be back next year.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary Dreamluv2eatDined on 10/9/2014We celebrated our anniversary here. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was vibrant, but quiet. We were able to talk and enjoy the ambiance. Service was very responsive. Great selection.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A real gemMickyDDined on 10/6/2014About as perfect as it gets. Great food and great service. Fully recommended.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WonderfulOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 10/1/2014My husband and I wanted to find a great place with gluten free options. I am a foodie and while in Boston wanted some good Italian but also something a little different. This place fit the bill and I can't recommend it highly enough.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PerfectKCLoverockDined on 9/29/2014My girlfriend and I came to Da Vinci's for her birthday, being drawn by their 20+ minute prep time souffle (which can only mean it is fantastic-- which it is). The food was exquisite, the staff had perfect timing and were personable. The atmosphere was relaxed and elegant. Their passion showed through in everything they do. I would recommend Da Vinci to anyone looking to treat themselves and loved ones.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tried hard, didn't meet expectationNuintaDined on 9/27/2014Cute little restaurant. Decided to splurge with chefs menu. Appetizer course was excellent. The pasta course was decent - the mushroom gnocchi was excellent, but the other pasta (with red sauce and short ribs) wasn't cooked (not just al dente, but hard, a bit crunchy). We tried the special, halibut, for next course, it was tasty, but dry. We were told the meat course was a filet with a crispy mashed potato, but we were served short ribs and polenta instead. Short ribs were tough and burnt, and were a repeat of one of the pasta courses. I elected not to eat it at all. For dessert course we had a chocolate soufflé which was lovely; I wish the vanilla gelato they served it with was soft, instead of frozen rock solid.
- Relaxing evening with familyAmyBDined on 9/26/2014The food, service and atmosphere were all above average. And we had a celebrity sighting. Rachel McAdams was sitting next to us. Comfortable and cozy. Order the rice balls appetizer and the pumpkin and sage mezzaluna. Delectable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent service and foodOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 9/26/2014I would avoid the Caesar salad and chocolate soufflé. We had 9 people, everything else was exceptional. The service was outstanding. It is noisy, hard to hear others at the table is you have a group. We will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodPecavoVIPDined on 9/26/2014Great food, especially the housemade gnocchi. Tasting menu was great and the chef discussed potential plates with us and worked with our food allergies to create a delicious 5 course meal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food, as always, was AMAZINGBostonHurricaneDined on 9/25/2014Was there with 8 people for a work dinner and the food was amazing. EVERYONE in our party raved about their meal. They always know how to do it right at Da Vinci. Our only complaint was our service. The server was very nice, but not attentive, took him a while to take our drink orders after we sat down, and waiting for our check actually became painful. We flagged someone down to get our server and our check, but it still took a LONG time to get him back to our table. After such a wonderful meal it was sad to end on such a down note.Special Features:
- Leave Your Cares and Woes OutsideIgoeverywhereVIPDined on 9/20/2014DaVinci is a good mood place. A mix of hipsters, (ahem)adult couples, yuppies, men from the neighborhood... everyone meets at DaVinci for a blow off time. The fig and crispy prosciutto was sweet, salty, succulent. Fruiti Di Mare was perfect, but the salmon at the next table looked wonderful. The food is excellent, but the staff is high touch.Special Features:
- fabulous food!laurieVIPDined on 9/20/2014the flavors on all the dishes we ordered from appetizers to dessert were outstanding!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Da Vinci ReviewfoodisawesomeDined on 9/19/2014Da Vinci is a great romantic date spot. The food is very good and the service is great. The ambiance is perhaps the best part of the restaurant. It is quiet and allows for a very intimate dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/17/2014enjoyed the vegetarian tasting sampler, 5 fantastic courses.Special Features:
- Close to greatToochDined on 9/15/2014Hip vibe for a Monday night. Professional and accommodating host. Service was largely professional, but a few minor oversights. Food was well prepared, but was overpowered by garlic, pasta was a bit overcooked (but right for the American preference) and was a bit bland, and could have been served hotter. Portions are on the small side for the price. Wine list is small for half bottles, and is pricey ($75 for 1/2 bottle of Cakebread Chard.). Overall quite nice. Dimly lit, but menus are illuminated, which is a nice touch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pre Show DinnerSDS21Dined on 9/13/2014Went to Da Vinci before a show at the Wang. Wait staff was terrific and our party of 4 all enjoyed their dishes and talked about it the next day. Fig app was very good, but the Crab Ravioli was absolutely terrific. Nice wine list with options for everyone. Definitely recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food on Columbus AverosieDined on 9/13/2014Da Vinci is a terrific restaurant I found it on the internet when looking for restaurants near the Lyric Stage.I made a 2nd visit lads Saturday. The food was excellent as was the service and staffSpecial Features:
- Nice Surprise as a BackupIKnowFoodButHateSnobsDined on 9/6/2014Couldn't get reservations where I wanted, and found this place. Food was very nice. And it was not overcrowded and also not empty. Great waiter in spite of our asking lots of questions. Bolognese was not, "the best I ever had," but was very far up there, and the pasta was perfectly cooked with just a bit of chewiness. If I lived there, I would go back again to try several other items that looked good.Special Features:
- Excellent Experiencerch2skiDined on 9/6/2014We had our tenth anniversary dinner here. The service was attentive and friendly. In terms of the food, it was one the best meals I have had in a long time. The chef is likely to circulate and see how you are doing, and strike up a chat. They added some nice personal touches during dessert for our anniversary without being asked. All in all, one of the best restaurant experiences we have had in town in years.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Indo-Italian FusionmailjinDined on 9/4/2014Indian Masala infused ravioli was the best pasta I have had in a while.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
