You know you’re an adult when… instead of celebrating falling snowflakes, you instead despise the idea of snow in any form. Sorry folks – not to be a Scrooge – but the idea of painfully treading through snowbanks and slush on your morning commute makes me want to cringe. And for those that were sadly stuck shoveling their sidewalks or clearing off their cars, we salute you.

But – believe it or not – there is a silver lining to the very cold temps outside. And that’s the right to indulge in as much comfort food and warm libations as humanly possible. No regrets.

And while there are plenty of places around town serving up very delicious, hearty meals, here are 10 places we recommend heading (weather permitting) to get your fill of comfort food. All of which, are tried and true – BostInno approved in our Dish of the Week.
