Spicepepper Garden Acton

Today's plan was to get to the prison in Concord without using any highways and that was doable. Unfortunately, the lunch offering wasn't too exciting so I continued to Spicepepper Garden in Acton instead. They had a sushi chef on duty but when a nearby table tried to order sushi it turned out that they had no sushi rice!

I know, another picture of an H&S soup but the soup is tasty and they are saving on plates by sticking the spring roll next to the soup.

I ordered the Dry-Braised Chicken in Hot Peppers from the lunch menu and was a bit surprised when this arrived. Normally dry braised or fried usually has a coating on the chicken but not here. It was marked as two peppers on the menu and is was deliciously hot!

Decided to go a bit further west (north?) towards Littleton and visit Bonsai West. Look at those gorgeous maples outside the entrance.

With my impeccable planning ahead scheme, they were naturally closed today so I only got a picture through the front door. This is a nice place to visit, they have some really impressive big trees here. I'm not buying, I have the thumb of death when it comes to growing things.
