Restaurant previews begin on Bostonist: L'Espalier

Sure, it’s an overdone publicity stunt, and many a foodie has been burned by the snooty service, tiny portions and unimpressive fare served to those who step out for Restaurant Week in Boston.

That pretty much sums up how I feel about RW, and that's what I wrote in Bostonist today.

However, if these things were enough to keep me away from good food at cut rate prices, well, I'd be a skinnier human than I am now. So I was still happy to do a RW preview series for the 'ist. This writeup of L'Espalier is the first of five.
