If you want you grab a bite heading to or from Boston Calling here are my suggestions:

Diner food and just a fun chill spot: Breakfast Club

I’m so egg-cited, and I just can’t hide it 💃🏼🎶 @thebreakfastclubboston is a hidden gem in lower Allston with a huge brunch menu. Their benedicts are super creative and are some of the best I’ve ever had.

Pizza (gluten-free too) or a salad in the funky little garage door building: Stone Hearth Pizza

Sausage and banana peppers make for a tasty spicy-sweet combo. #favoritetoppings #knowbetterpizza

Alden & Harlow (Great bar and cocktails. Many interesting small plates and a secret burger that is always sold out because its not a secret)

Corn pancakes with shishito peppers. One of many killer combos and Alden and Harlow in Cambridge, MA for my first meal back in the states since my European adventure. This place has great vibes, cocktails and a noticeably attentive staff to go along with there amazing menu. Everything I ate was exciting and delicious!! #stAyfoodie #backhome #aldenandharlow #corncakes

Something quick: Portland Maine’s Otto Pizza (by the slice) or NYC’s  Liquiteria (smoothie/juice)

Or, venture down to Central Square:

Go Vegan and raw (but you don’t have to be either) at Life Alive, Get my favourite avocado sandwich at Mariposa Cafe, or stop into Little Donkey for some chilaquiles or a bagel with roe and yuzu.
