LAST BITE
as with love, you never forget your first. What fan of Mass Ave’s doesn’t remember their first taste of Micah Frank’s legendary burger, half lamb, half beef, all juice and umami, topped with a tangy schmear of goat cheese and funky green-tomato pickles? No ketchup ever required. Was Ed Rudisell at the bar, making magic with rum? Who could forget their first steamed Spam bun, dressed only with cucumbers and the bite of jalapeño, yet a revelation in potted meat as haute cuisine? Did you eat it on the patio against the bustling Cultural Trail while you sipped a two-gin, hibiscus-and-house tonic Big Momma Thang stirred up by Eli Sanchez himself? Did you think that moment would last forever?
