Okay, before I start let me tell you just one thing about me: I am an absolute food freak. I love cooking, experimenting, and trying different cuisine. So, obviously, American food was something I was really concerned about. Actually my anxiety increased because the food is so different here! I had to visit three different supermarkets just to find a simple Activia yogurt! And still – it was low fat! Yeah, this is the first thing to know: every product in America is low fat. However, for those who are trying to get fat, there are plenty of snacks, chips, drinks, and dips.
Boston is famous for its seafood, lobsters, and oysters. The best place to go for it is the market. Here you can try it for a very reasonable price and a good quality. One of the must-try items is a lobster-roll. In comparison with the size of American portions overall, lobster rolls are quite small, but very filling.

One of the first places I visited here was a restaurant called the Top of the Hub, located on the 52nd floor of Prudential tower – Boston’s highest building. Once you are in Boston, I think you must consider visiting it at least one time. The view of the city’s skyline can hardly leave you indifferent. I think that was the moment when I fell in love with Boston, actually. And, of course, the food at Top of the Hub is simply amazing. I would not call it typical American food, but they definitely offer some burgers and sandwiches, which will make you eat your fingers.
Obviously, while talking about American food, I think it’s unfair to leave the junk food out. I mean, guys, I can understand why Americans love fast food so much: it tastes really different from anywhere in the world. Moreover, it’s extremely cheap.
Finally, I have to say few words about small but addictive things, like peanut or cookie butter. Honestly, I have never noticed that in the European supermarkets, but the variety of these products here is amazing. And – trust me – once you try it, you will never be able not to eat it. At least I know what to bring back with me… :)
