If you don't have a Korean grocery in your hometown, I highly recommend visiting our local H mart. They have a great food court where you can get prepared food, but also have the best produce around, and lots of interesting grocery products from many Asian countries beyond Korea.

Delicious fresh and healthy food in downtown Winchester. A local fave.
Local gem that requires you to call ahead of time. They make a finite amount of dough and close up shop when they sell out. That usually happens around 7PM so plan ahead.

Another great pizza place in Woburn. If you missed the window to get yourself a pizza from Louie's, Pizza Market has got your back.

Putnam Patty is an excellent old fashioned Ice Cream and sweets Parlor. It is also an historic home, with a couple of other original colonial homes nearby huddled in a highway cloverleaf. They have some colonial history curiousities on display and the ice cream is delicious.

Another source for great European imports. This shop is located in charming downtown Concord MA, just down the street from the Louisa May Alcott house. If you are here the first Thursday in December, you may enjoy going for the Crucolo cheese parade. Look it up on the internet. It’s worth it!

The hours are tricky but this museum has preserved some much overlooked history of colonial American life and has the only remaining structure in the northern states that was built to house enslaved people. Well worth a visit.

Extensive trail networks, with beautiful reservoirs. Our water actually comes from these reservoirs. The Fells can be accessed in Winchester on S Border Rd.

The Museum of Fine Art is wonderful and definitely worth your time. But the Harvard Art Museums are the locals’ favorites. Admission is free to the public. Thanks John Harvard!

Rush hour is formidable in Boston
If driving, try to plan trips outside of peak commuter hours. The MBTA has buses, subways and commuter rail options. Alewife station in Cambridge has a big parking garage where you can hop on the trains and explore Boston without the hassle of parking or traffic.
