Boston Chowda Company- Boston, MA




I traveled to Boston recently for a school trip. During my time there, my friends and I found some great restaurants inside the Prudential Center food court. One of them was Boston Chowda Company, a small eatery known for their award-winning Clam Chowder which is a two-time winner of Boston's annual ChowderFest. However, I discovered they also make fantastic sandwiches. 

I'd had my fair share of Clam Chowder in Boston the day before, so I decided to try a sandwich because it looked so good. 




Boston Chowda Company serves up delicious sandwiches and melts such as the Maine Lobster Roll and the Applewood Smoked Bacon and Tomato Melt along with signature soups, New England Pot Pies, and wraps.

They're known for original family recipes prepared with quality ingredients and passion.



I ordered the Chicken Pesto Melt- roasted chicken breast, sliced plum tomatoes, cheesy mozzarella,  fresh basil and pesto sauce, on sliced rustic Italian bread, buttered and then grilled to perfection.

It was a substantial portion of breaded chicken, flavorful pesto, velvety mozzarella, and succulent plum tomatoes. Although there was a substantial amount of chicken, I would have preferred a thin chicken cutlet rather than a thick one. 













Even though I didn't get to try the Clam Chowder,                             Service was super fast and friendly
I strongly recommend trying it. The "Chowda"
looked terrific!

Cheeseboy - Boston, MA




I traveled to Boston recently to participate in the Harvard Model Congress conference with my school delegation. During the conference, my roommates and I explored the Prudential Center where we found Cheeseboy, a small eatery known for its grilled cheese sandwiches.




True to its name, Cheeseboy serves up fresh grilled cheese sandwiches such as the Chipolte Chicken and Roast Chief along with soups, mac and cheese and breakfast sandwiches. 

They're known for quick service, affordable prices and natural ingredients that includes breads made without the use of any artificial preservatives, flavorings or dough conditioners. 

I ordered the Turkey Clubhouse - all-natural turkey, thick-cut hickory bacon, muenster cheese, and dill pickles on all-natural artisan white bread. It was a healthy portion of turkey, savory bacon, velvety  cheese, and succulent dills. 









Service was super-quick and friendly and you basically watch the employees prepare your sandwich right in front of you!


Cheeseboy is so popular it has already expanded to locations in Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey.

 Check out their story in the video below.
