"My mom used to send me to school with tuna fish sandwiches on Sunbeam white bread. The tuna fish salad was made with pickle juice. I would stick the lunch bag next to the radiator so the sandwich would get nice and warm. I loved those warm tuna sandwiches!" –JBF Award Winner Barbara Lynch, No. 9 Park, BostonWhat's in a Name: L’Espalier, Boston
Bringing French haute cuisine to the Northeast, Frank McClelland’s much-lauded restaurant takes its name from a French word, derived from an Italian word meaning “something to rest the shoulder against.” It’s also the term for latticework that supports fruit trees and flowers—especially roses. Appropriate for a colonial New England townhouse-turned French restaurant.Pages
