Explore wicked cool Bawston! Bostonian Heidi Patalano gives you the real deal on her city. If you want to avoid appearing wicked obnoxious when you visit, read very carefully…. “The dorkier tourists…quack like ducks –be glad you’re not one of them.” Heidi Patalano 15 September 2010 05:34 See The North End Boston’s Little Italy puts many a city’s Italian quarter to shame. Hundreds of amazing restaurants (and the famous Mike’s Pastry) so you’ll not only be charmed by the old-world feel of the neighborhood but will leave with a full belly.
Duck Boat Tour guide The dorkier tourists on the Duck Boats (amphibious vehicles) being forced to quack like ducks, and then be glad you're not one of them. Also, the roar of the Fenway faithful as a Red Sox player cranks one over the Green Monster – that’s what we call the back wall of the pahk, er, park.
Mr. Bartley’s Burgers In Cambridge’s Harvard Square this historic hole in the wall is not only home to the best burgers in town, it’s also been host to the biggest brainiacs in recent history. Presidents, scholars, anyone who hits up the Harvard campus always makes a trip. Burgers include The Barack Obama and The Bill Clinton.
Dunkin’ Donuts iced coffee Forget what coffee snobs say about the superiority of Starbucks, Bostonians drink Dunkin’ Donuts coffee like they follow their sports — with the focus of a meth freak looking for Sudafed.
Red Sox and Patriots gear Bostonians are obsessed with their local teams. After a big win cars will be overturned and trash cans will be torched. In these circumstances, only a Red Sox or Pats jersey will save you.
The Public Gardens Check out the manicured gardens in Boston Common, while taking in historic buildings that border the park including yes, the bar that was based on the famous American TV show, Cheers.
Bother with Faneuil Hall It’s a market place loaded with overpriced stores, restaurants and cheesy “Irish” pubs. No Bostonian worth their salt would waste time in the vapid commercial space for uninformed tourists.
"Wicked awesome" The best way to compliment a native is to express it as only a true Bostonian would. But don’t do the full Matt Damon Good Will Hunting. That’s just wicked obnoxious.
“Quincy” “Peabody” “Hot Dog” and “Popcorn” Bostonians have their own way of pronouncing pretty much everything. Local town Quincy, is pronounced “Quinzee” and Peabody, “P-b’dee.” Hot dog is “hut dawg” and popcorn is “pupkawn.”
