Cheap Eats in Boston

by Eric H.
HiddenBoston.com offers a great dining resource service by listing cheap places to eat in the Boston, MA, area. What gives these listings a unique edge is that these restaurants are not that well-known outside their regions, but, nevertheless, offer some truly great food at a good value. Hidden Boston also features more expensive restaurants, but in alignment with this blog's theme we recommend checking out the "Cheap Eats" first.

Farm Stays at a Low Price

Farm stays, often costing around $100.00 a night for a family of four, is a great way to save money when seeking accommodations for your New England vacation. Breakfast is usually included, as well as farm activities -- if applicable -- making this type of lodging a nice rural way to spend a vacation. There's a terrific resource for affordable farm stays in Vermont on the Vermont Farms Association Web Site. It might be a nice way to spend a summer country vacation, be near fall foliage in autumn, or close to skiing in the winter!
