If you've never been, it's the best grocery store in the city with low-priced, specialty food from around the world. I buy all my fresh flowers from there and there's great, ready-to-eat meals too.

Everything Else

Treat yourself and get your nails done for $5 (polish change) or $10 for the full deal (manicure). At first glance, the place looks a little crappy but the staff there are the best for perfectionists.

Hands down the best place in Boston to pick up bread. It's a bit of a trek but if you have time, it's worth it. My favorite are their chocolate croissants. Just. Like. Paris.

Arts & Culture

My all time favorite bookstore in North America. Constantly updated and curated selection. They also have a great selection of used books in the basement which is easy to miss.
