Talk:Worcester (Massachusetts)

"Worcester's only radio station that can be heard outside of Worcester (AM-830)" WICN is heard outside of Worcester and there are perhaps others.

Confirm?
Can someone confirm or deny this place being closed (just stick it back in if it's open)? (WT-en) Maj 00:09, 24 January 2007 (EST)


 * Anna's Hungarian Kitchen -- probably out of business :(. 70 Southbridge St. "+1" 508-791-1400.  Unique among restaurants in the "fancy" category, Anna's offers a very specifically ethnic fare in what used to be the bar/restaurant of a 70s-era high rise hotel.  But the quality and presentation of the food is on par with Worcester's best restaurants, and the desert menu (try the walnut crepe flambe) outdoes any other in Worcester, except possibly Ti Novo.  It's a gem with an unassuming exterior--quintessentially Worcester.

Ethnic Restaurants
You could spend a lifetime going to the following restaurants in rotation:

Jamaican

 * Caribbean Delights, Chandler at Piedmont, lots of meat, patties, roti.


 * One Love, Main St at Castle, next to the Artichoke Co-op. Great roti, other nice entrees, romantic, quaint dining. Perfect for dates or a nice night out with friends. BYOB. Fresh fruit in water. Patties for lunch for $1.50.

Vietnamese




Latino




Italian




Middle Eastern

 * Amelia's Bakery, Pleasant St. (near Irving St. two blocks uphill from Main St.) Closes at 2:30PM. Best falafel in Worcester, and a cute table in the front window. Opposite Pupuseria Salvadorena.

Late Night
Worcester is the birthplace of the diner. The Worcester Lunch Car Company Built Diners from their factory in downtown Worcester from 1906 to 1957. Their serial numbers started at 200 and ended with 850. Many are still in existence. They are characterized by porcelain enamel exteriors with the name of the diner in the enamel. The interiors have mosaic tile floors and tile walls. So there's still lots of "third shift" places to eat, including:
 * George's, Grafton St. One of the most interesting cheap late-night eats is a pita bakery on Grafton Street. It opens each night around 3AM to start making pita, and you can buy fresh pitas that look like footballs. The pita bakery is about 5 storefronts up the hill from their daytime, public-facing deli.Godsendlemiwinks (talk) 02:39, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
