September 6th

Eat:
Breakfast is back.  Beginning September 7th, the Seapoint  (367 East Eighth) brings back their popular breakfast from 10a-1pm.   From Irish breakfast to a breakfast burrito, the Seapoint serves up your favorites.  Their mile-high Bloody Marys and tasty Mimosas are worth a try too.  Stick around for the game later.

Drink:
Last call for the Quencher Tavern! The legendary Quencher Tavern (170 I Street)  will close its doors in November.  Whether it’s your hundredth time in the Q or your first time, stop by and have a drink this weekend.  It’s one of our favorite old school Southie bars and the Quencher will be missed!

Shop:
Ku De Ta is ushering in fall with lots of new clothing an accessories – not to mention their amazing denim section.  But as fall enters the scene, Ku De Ta says good-bye to summer with a 25% off sale on maxi-dresses.  Stylists tip: Just because fall is here doesn’t mean you have to put away your maxis – pair it with a denim or leather jacket.  Or even wear it with an oversized slouchy sweater for that neo-grunge look that’s big this season.  

Parade:
We love a parade!  It’s the annual South Boston Youth Soccer Parade on Thursday, September 5th at 6pm.  Stop by the Moakley Park Soccer Field and watch the youth of South Boston parade around the field sporting their new uniforms.  Hip, hip, hooray!
