Dine and Dash: Dorchester and Ashmont Grill

I don’t know much about Dorchester, but that’s where I’m going Sunday. It’s the biggest of all the Boston neighborhoods, with several smaller sub-neighborhoods, but I never spent ant time visiting, unless passing through on 93 counts as a visit.

This isn’t breaking news, but I’ll mention it anyway: Dot is an up-and-coming part of town. It has a reputation as a sometimes-rough, working-class area, but many sections are cleaning up beautifully. Houses are relatively inexpensive and it’s not difficult to find huge homes on huge lots.

I heard Ashmont Grill offers a great Sunday brunch. They offer French Toast made of Challah in a Grand Marnier custard and I can’t wait to give it a try. Challah, Grand Marnier and custard? How bad could it be?

The Grill and all three open houses are just a couple blocks from the Ashmont T station.
