Review by Iris W. Over the years, people have mentioned the Boynton restaurant as offering gluten-free food, but only recently did I have an opportunity to dine in this once small tavern from the 1930’s and named after a founding father of the nearby Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The current owners purchased the tavern in 1969, and […]

Carrot pudding is a sensuous dessert from India called gaijar ka halwa. The original recipe calls for milk and ghee (clarified butter), but I’ve substituted soymilk and oil. Long, slow simmering is called for. Start this dessert first, then continue with other dishes on your menu. Have the kids pitch in to grate carrots and stir […]
