Alec grew up a Boston sports fan through & through. Lauren, being from NY, never thought she would go to a Boston sports game, let alone enjoy it. It must be something in the New England water. One of their favorite Boston memories is going to see a Celtics game during the playoffs in 2024. The Celtics won 113-98 against the Cleveland Cavaliers and went on to win the 2024 NBA Championship. Alec also proposed to Lauren right before they were going to see a Celtics game on February 4th 2024.
Hopefully in good weather, there are few things more fun than visiting Fenway park for a Boston Red Sox game. Even though Lauren will never root for the Red Sox, there is something very fun about the stadium.
After sleeping off the high of getting engaged and witnessing the Celtics win at TD Garden, Lauren and Alec stopped by this awesome breakfast/brunch spot in nearby Back Bay. It quickly became a favorite spot and they try to get a reservation every time they are in the area. Reservations are strongly recommended as there is normally a pretty long line on the weekends!
One of Alec & Lauren's favorite restaurants to visit. Get the risotto balls and truffle popcorn, you won't be sorry.
Alec and Lauren are frequent flyers at Butterfly. In addition to having great Chinese food, they also have karaoke on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. If you haven't heard Alec sing yet, you're missing out. He is best known for 'I'll Make a Man Out of You' from Mulan.
The closest Lauren can find to a NY style deli in Connecticut.
Used to be called Bagelman when Lauren was a kid, this is her favorite bagel place to stop at when visiting home. It's not uncommon for Lauren & Alec to bring home a dozen or more bagels for friends and to keep in the freezer. There's nothing more satisfying than a good New York bagel
