I love olives!

I never noticed this before, but i love and olive are anagrams! My love affair with olives is legendary among Haddens. Alex, in fact, was able to entice me to visit France, despite my fear of flying, with just this picture of olives at the market! Drool.

After returning from points south, Jaime and I took advantage of Restaurant Week(s) to go to Olives, Todd English's famous restaurant in Charlestown. I'd always wanted to go, simply because of the name! The prix fixe menu was a tempation I could no longer pass up, and I gladly offered myself an olive branch.

The restaurant is set in City Square, with a wonderful view of the Zakim bridge. The food was excellent and well-presented.

I am pretty sure we'll be returning!
