No shit Athena’s closed? He used to own Athena’s in Amherst and he owns Sophia’s in Greenfield. FILO’s is good, he also owns ummm Florence Pizza? Bruno’s in Amherst is Greek. I’m out in the woods in Sunderland. And yes, I’m pretty sure I am related to everyone else. Glad you like my extended family’s restaurants. We appreciate you very much.

I just want to know how South Hadley made the list? If you want boondocks Western MA next to UM ASS (my beloved alma mater) regular Hadley is kinda much better. Though I live in neither and am quite happy. Amherst is nice but too expensive, Hadley is right next door. Little more farmy but less trashy the S Hadley, especially the falls. Yeesh

Nope, I know the place well my family has a restaurant. Complete coincidence, though Kittredge Center at HCC is indeed named after the father. So the story goes, he started making candles in his mothers garage and built his wealth. The local story on the other hand involves the importation of cannabis to the region (George Jung, come to mind) I think he distributed weed at UMASS and then found a way to make the money become legal. Now I await the hit squad

Huh had even money the Croatians would do this exact same thing first. Oh well, it was 50/50 to begin with. Stay classy Serbia. With Ukraine, uh, busy. We need someone to fill the black hole of pure racism in soccer that only they excelled at. Glad to see other countries doing their job. Before anyone tries defending them. They have been punished multiple times for abhorrent fans and have had to play international games in empty stadiums as punishment

Oh it’s that what it is? Fun fact, ground beef is meat from a shitload of animals. Unlike a steak. Which is a single cut of meat from a single animal. It’s highly recommended to leave link in the middle of steaks. But unless I personally hand ground that beef, I would never touch that with pink in it. Two decades of working in a restaurant taught me to know better. I wasn’t sure what this was at all. Kinda surprised to learn it’s food
