Breakfast Gyro at Committee in the Seaport: Tiff and I are running a bunch of miles on the weekends as we creep up on the Big Sur Marathon at the end of April. This past Saturday was a cold, windy day for a run along the Charles River. A trip to Committee kept my legs churning, and golly it was worth it. We don’t go to brunch all that often, but this Breakfast Gyro might be my favorite brunch item I’ve had in Boston.
The Gyro is served in a large pita stuffed with chorizo, scrambled eggs, and cheese. It’s insanely good all the way around. The chorizo is in big chucks, the eggs are cooked perfectly (creamy but not watery). The pita is soft and the side of potatoes require no ketchup or hot sauce. Just a dynamite brunch following a 19 mile run.
Soy-Glazed Chicken Breasts with Pickled Cucumbers: It took a lot on Thursday evening to not pull the cover off the grill, stand outside with a beer, and enjoy the early days of spring. But this chicken recipe was a phenomenal alternative. It is simple and absolutely delicious. The process of cooking it made the chicken unbelievably tender, and even though the recipe calls for like a lot of steps, the chicken stays in the pan the whole time, just covered or uncovered with a few ingredients added as you go. Serve on rice, or make it a GD sandwich.

Daily Serving by Trillium: This beer blew my mind. It’s basically juice. We had the mango and passion fruit version, but they have a bunch of different brews. I have nothing else to say.

The Random Division Pod: The Women Tell All was not all that great, which is on brand with past versions of the reunion episode. But Tiff did a Reddit deeeep dive and we talked about the women who were, and weren’t, at the union. Listen here on iTunes and here on Spotify.

The Imperfect Game: Both and I continue to get as much as we can out of the research we did this winter. This week, we picked the worst stadium, fans, crests, uniforms, etc from the ten teams we have highlighted in this series to build our Nightmare Club. Listen here on iTunes and here on Spotify.
