Boom! Sam's in Seaport

Last night a friend and I stopped by a great place in the Seaport called Sam's. Summer is officially on its way in New England, so I've been trying to figure out the best places to enjoy eats and drinks en plein air.

Sam's sits on the harbor in a fantastically designed space. It's small an compact, but very open and airy. If you found yourself here on a chilly day, eating inside would be just as enjoyable. The view of the harbor is wonderful. Outside, there's patio room to stand and have drinks or eat at one of the many tables.

My friend and I actually ended up eating at the bar. We opted to share the cheese plate, along with a couple of salads: a quinoa, arugula, grapefruit and feta salad and asparagus with tea egg and Serano ham. All washed down with some Rose. Yum.

Sam's sits next to the ICA, which hosts evening events. Last night's event went out with a bang with a surprise 10 minute long surprise firework show over the harbor. We had front row seats. So fun. The fireworks got me on the mood for the 4th. Can't wait to see what this historic city has in store.

I can't wait to go back on a sunny day for the views, atmosphere and eats.
