Eating from Ottawa to Boston

[Ted Bairstow]

Some friends are planning to drive from Ottawa to Boston with their three year old son and have asked me for advice about food stops. I have told them that I like to stop in Burlington for dinner at Smokejacks, but have not travelled past Burlington in the past five years or so, so I have little up-to-date info to offer them on such places as Montpelier, Queechee or anything between Queechee and Boston. Any suggestions?

Once you get past Worcester, I recommend (assuming you hit Rt. 9 or the turnpike) Tomasso's in Southborough(on rt.9).

Smokejacks has apparently closed.

From the Seven Days blog:

Political columnist Shay Totten saw some of the crew "drowning their sorrows" at the OP, and Seven Days staffer Colby Roberts reported that there's a big "for rent" sign on the restaurant's window. On Facebook, at least one employee has changed her status to indicate that she is now unemployed.
