Regina Pizzeria seems to have a good amount of awards: www.reginapizzeria.com/awards.php

You’ve given me a place to check out next time I’m in Boston^. I have had delicious Sicilian Style pizza at Galleria Umberto (289 Hanover Street) if you are looking to try a different pizza next time.

I love me some Regina. I might have to leave tomorrow. If not, I'll meet you there.

Hi All, I hope that you can make it. Feel free to email me with your RSVP at


As this is an Overnight MR I will not be carrying my laptop, however I will have my Blackberry. Feel free to leave your number if you like in the email. I may do the 10:00 a.m. Samuel Adams Tour if anyone would like to join. Thanks and hope to see you on Friday ( P.S. I will be checking FT until Thursday Morning 6:00 am LAX Time )

I'd like to come, but I'm not out of class until 1:00. Then it's about a 5-minute T ride into Boston. How long are you around?

Hey BOS, thanks for joining me for the Regina DO. cmn.jcs, Scotty00, Arthur Randolf ( and his bike ) and JY1024. I had a great time and really enjoyed the company. As you know I did an "all nighter" MR in BOS. Thought that I would paste my Trip Report that I posted on Chowhound ( they gave me some tips for the night before) Hope you enjoy. Next stop ORD this week!!

Here is my Trip Report:

Landed at Logan at 11:30 pm or so.. I took the Silver Line to South Station, transferred to the Red Line, then transferred to the Green Line. Exited at Copley. After asking some friendly people for directions I took the advise of our fellow Hound (total 13) and ended up at the Delux (cool place witha very cool bartender, Jennifer, whom poured a mean Crown Royal Manhattan Up ) we chatted awhile about my evening and plans, then she gave me directions to the Franklin. Wanted to stay, but too little time. The evening is starting well! Walked over to the Franklin, I must say coming from Los Angeles I could really appreciate the architecture that this area has to offer. Once at the Franklin, I was already feeling like a local! Had a few draft beers (a Rhode Island brew which comes from tall Red pull, I believe that the name starts with an N ) gosh drinks are cheap in Boston. $3 for a Draft ( think $8 or more in LA for a spot like the Franklin ) I chatted with lots of the local color. I'm straight, however, the crowd here is very diversified. Spoke to a few people and asked for walking directions to Chinatown.. drank two beers ( I think its now about 2 am ) Headed over in a straight line across the freeway, pretty simple walk, and was in the land of Clams and Black Bean sauce. The nice brisk walk was about 20 minutes or so.. After nodding out in the Clams which were very good.. ( well the waiter patted me on the back ) I was off to the W Hotel.. ( Thought I would blow off an hour or two there on the Lobby Couches. (The hip security guard after our brief and cordial conversation suggested that I was no longer welcome ) So its South Station for me. Nice walk and hung there for an hour before I got a Bagel, then off to walk around a bit ( the morning air was fresh and nice ) Made it to the Tufts Orange line station for a ride to Jamica Plain for my 10 am Samuel Adams tour and tasting. Tour was nice and the beers a welcome mid morning treat. After the tour I was meeting 4 friends from an airline blog that I subscribe to at Pizzeria Regina on Thatcher. Caught a farmers market on the way to Reginas ( right outside the Haymarket station ) I had to have a mixed dozen of Oysters and Cherry stones for $10 bucks.. Wow! They were so fresh and tasted just like they were taken from the sea.. Now.. as I waking over to Reginas I felt the need for a Cannoli at Mikes!! Sweet.. ate it and dusted suger on my black sweater showed the enjoyment. Met my new friends ( actually the first time I met them.. at Reginas) 3 more beers, couple of great pies for the group. Then off to Mikes with some of guys from lunch in tow for some biscotti. Then its time to say goodbye.. Orange line to Blue Line ( nodded out again and missed the Airport stop by two stations ) no worries over the bridge at the stop that I had woken up at..and before you know it I'm in the United Lounge at Logan! Double Rum and Egg Nog. Overall great time, and YES you can do an all nighter in Boston. Everyone I had encountered was really nice ( even the security guy at the W ) weather was warm during the day on Friday and not that cold during the night on Thursday, I actually enjoyed the brisk night..Thank you Boston for an very enjoyable time. And most of all to: total 13, whom gave the lead on Delux and Franklin.. Iff any of you are ever in Los Angeles and need some recommendations I am happy to return the favor..

You visited a few of my favorite places. Regina's was a good idea for lunch: as you probably know, they have a wait down the sidewalk almost every night. I have been there about a dozen times - and waited about 11 of them.

I also like Mike's. Modern Pastry (across the street, about a block down) is my favorite ( try the toronne) but Mike's is good and has a huge selection. Mike's also serves their cappiccino with a crystallized swizzle stick and I think this is a nice touch.
