Over at Buono Bistro Sutton Street in North Andover, they are all about pairing a delicious meal with a refreshing drink suitable for the hot weather. “I have a passion for people and food,” said John Minasian of Buono Bistro. “We tend to sell more whites during the summer except for those who drink red no matter what they get,” Minasian said of his customers’ wine selection. “Especially when it’s hot and humid, people like to eat lighter,” he continued. Minasian had the perfect recommendation for this time of year. “Right now we’re getting some very fresh tomatoes for our Pomodoro Caprese salad which comes with the tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, …

The North Andover restaurant scene just got a bit spicier In 2008 restaurant owner Shahram Naghibi took part in a dining experience that he would never forget. In Tampa, Florida he discovered a Brazilian steakhouse and decided that it was time for the Merrimack Valley to enjoy the South American specialties that this restaurant had to offer. “We don’t have this caliber restaurant in all of Massachusetts,” said Naghibi. Four years later, his new restaurant, Chama Grill, is now open at 115 Main Street in downtown North Andover. Chama offers a unique dining experience that patrons will get used to very quickly. For $39 guests can live the Chama dining experience. First, guests have a choice of Panzanella salad or the chef’s soup of the day. …

On Christmas morning 2010, most Merrimack Valley residents were opening gifts, spending time with family, and enjoying the holiday season. While you were relaxing, Michael Asmar was in a panic. His restaurant, which had served the Merrimack Valley for over 30 years, caught fire and burned to the ground in Methuen. Methuen’s loss became North Andover’s gain. Asmar and his business moved into a new location on Chickering Road, and since then he hasn’t looked back. “Everything worked out,” said Asmar. Shadi’s Restaurant expects to stay in North Andover for a long time to come. “I love North Andover,” Asmar said. “It has been very good to us,” he shared. Middle Eastern cuisine is Shadi’s specialty.

Not typical breakfast food. I am self-employed, have long work days and like to start my day with a good protein, dinner-type meal. Love salad and green veggies. A favourite is a grilled turkey burger served over steamed kale with a few sliced tomatoes drizzled with olive oil and strew with basil and a few sprinkles of crumbled feta on the side. There is always melon or berries to follow and … more ›
