Been open a month, but no one’s really talking about this place yet. They should be. My party of 6 ate most of the menu and it ran from way good to terrific+. Fun little spot from #thejackdawrva popup team. Approachably creative Filipino/Pinoy dishes. Fresh and smartly composed (like this octopus/peaches/eggplant app). Priced fairly, too. And they did it with their own $. No loans or investors. Which is why there’s been so little buzz – they’re spending on produce, not PR. We should all support that kind of chutzpah. #sinkorswim #rvadine

Still coming down from cloud nine after the killerest wedding weekend I’ve ever experienced. @elizabethrestaurant_and_co & @annababykitten sealed it with a kiss at @campkupugani. I shot this around the post-nuptial, post-hootenanny bonfire late Sat eve as Orion rose, the Big Dipper set, and a campground of revelers basked in the glow of two shimmering souls who went supernova that night. 10-second exposure as @cecilia___tesauro wrote the word with her #smores stick. @leicastoreboston @leicacamerausa #vlux #longexposure

Walk to fish. Church Hill’s newest mantra/hashtag. Thanks to @chefleegregory, my wife and I can stroll to @alewiferva and sup on goodies like these. Love their sustainable pea gravel oyster bedding in lieu of kosher salt. The #cauliflower and #cobia dishes killed it. And that #mississippi rice! Good lawd, don’t get me started on this smoked bluefish and tobiko #corncake reminiscent of @neptuneoysterbar’s iconic johnnycake. Oh, and there’s #softserve for dessert. #rvadine has a new gem. And it’s honest, delicious, unfusty, and balanced. Look for @amyleerva and me here often. #churchill #walktofish

My favorite spine in the whole wide world. She turns me upside down and inside out, but @amyleerva always keeps me rooted. I dig your version of #treepose, my darling.

First time here. #mv is fun. I get it now. I think I can name 7 of the 8 towns of Martha’s Vineyard. And I think I’ve visited 7. And I may or may not have nearly been swept out to sea by a white-haired #siren named #majalehnlaboheme. Thank you @jwbackcountry2 for blowing the life guard whistle at #lambertscoveroad #lambertscovebeach #pinacoladas #temperance #mv 📷 by @twingkil

How we do #sunset at #LambertsCoveBeach: vintage bedspread • homemade wine • toasting • dancing • seaside silhouettes. And then dinner at @stateroadmv.
Stark raving gorgeous #lobstahroll at @lookouttavernmv. Perfectly mayo’d. Most voluptuous one since Boston’s @neptuneoysterbar.

That’s not a #vealchop... it’s the most astonishingly delicious swordfish I’ve ever had. Seared on the pan, finished in a brick oven, served on the bone (which I gnawed – as one should). @csaltwinebarandgrille has changed my idea of what #swordfish can do. Bring any mammals-only eater here and they will, ahem, sea the light.

Halfway there. Venturing to a friend worth 🚗 to ✈️ to 🚎 to ⛴ to 🏖. Yes, that’s the 🌙 out there. @peterpanbus
