Saturday early evening before my brother and I went to the Red Sox game, we headed to the Village Smokehouse in Brookline. Now I’ve been here before and it’s definitely heavy food, but its also delicious. I’m always super impressed with their barbecued meats and BBQ sauce. The restaurant has a really cute theme to it. “Ain’t nothin’ fancy mind ya, just a place where good folks go.” Love that saying! Check out other fun sayings they had all over their menu!

My favorite- “I used to eat all natural foods until I realized so many people die of natural causes.” hehhe!

Complimentary Corn Bread to start…![]() I decided to try to be lighter and order the Smoked Grilled Chicken Death Sandwich. Death because I added jalapenos. I also added cheese but held the bacon (for once). |


And of course we got sides of Sweet Potato Fries and Baked Beans- how can we resist?


After that, my brother and I rolled ourselves over to Fenway for our first game of the year!

Once we got in, we immediately got a beer. I mean who can resist an $8 CAN of Beer, right? Fenway- are you serious- 8 bucks for a CAN of beer!

I did find their strategies for pouring the beers quite beneficial however. Pretty funny stuff! No foam!

The Red Sox lost because no one could actually figure out to how to HIT the ball. But it was a fun night anyway with my big brother. But we’re old and bounced before the end- hey we beat the crowd! (I’m a grandma). Plus I had to wake up early to get down to Providence to cheer for my running buddies! (More on that later…)
