Framingham, Natick & environs: the Metrowest thread

Perhaps it’ll be good to start a Metro West thread? There are so many Indian restaurants on Route 9 that I’d love some pointers for the best place(s) to go. but here are a few places I like near Route 9/Framingham/Westborough area:

  • Jack’s Abby: great seasonal beer and food; beer-hall seating is a challenge on the weekends.
  • Westborough Korean Restaurant: (yes that’s actually the name) the best banchan in the region; solid lunch boxes and interesting menu items on the wall that I’ve yet to get through.
  • China Gourmet: I’ve written about it in another post, but it’s one of the better places to get Hunanese dishes. (My Hunan-native friend thinks Sei Bar in Wakefield has the slight edge.)

As far as Shaanxi Gourmet goes, I have to echo other’s lukeware review. Granted, I’ve only been once maybe two years ago, but I remember everything being just ok and there’s nothing you can’t get at MDM or another noodle place around Boston. I’ve also been to some Brazilian buffet places in Malborough but it’s nothing special.
