Pad Thai, perhaps Thailand's most infamous noodle dish, has dozens of incarnations—including several regional variations—each one a slightly different take on the mouthwatering combination of sweet, salty, and sour flavors. Some are super spicy,...

I had no idea that one of Boston's oldest Irish bars would also serve one of the city's tastiest lobster rolls. A close friend and I recently tucked in to The Green Dragon for lunch, and were oh-so-pleasantly surprised by the food.

Wow. Just wow. (That's us! On Saveur's website!) Let me get a little mushy. Just a little. Just for a minute. It's always so nice when someone tells me that they like The Hungry Mouse. This...
