Whether you’re a competitor in the 2012 Boston Marathon on Monday, April 16, or you’re just planning to watch and cheer on your favorite athletes, you’ll need a convenient place to stay while you’re in the area. Here at the Kendall Hotel, we’re a short subway ride from downtown Boston and the final, most exciting portion of the course.

Now in its 116th year, the Boston Marathon is one of the best known and highly regarded road races in existence, attracting amateur and professional runners from all over the world. It’s traditionally held on the third Monday in April, Patriots’ Day, commemorating the start of the Revolutionary War. Competitors must qualify for the race by completing another certified marathon in under a certain time, which varies by
age and gender.

The most famous section of the race may be Heartbreak Hill, a challenging climb that
comes at the 20-mile mark at a time when many runners are hitting the notorious “wall.”
Each year, some 500,000 spectators line the 26.2-mile course to offer marathoners their support and encouragement.

But no need to worry about parking restrictions and road closures in the city while the race is under way! Just be our guest at the Kendall Hotel and catch the T at the Kendall/MIT Redline station, steps away from our front door. After the race, you can explore the incredible variety of things to see and do in Boston, or escape the hubbub and enjoy a relaxing dinner at our very own Black Sheep Restaurant.

For more information on the Boston Marathon, visit the official website. To make a reservation at the Kendall Hotel, contact us.

Long time family friend and chef consultant, Dalu Aruda assisted the two women with opening the hotel’s eatery, The Black Sheep Restaurant.  Her artistry in the kitchen was astounding and after launching the Black Sheep, Dalu began working on her own interests including teaching cooking on a local television program as well as writing her own cookbook. But recently, Charlotte and Briar Rose convinced Dalu to return as Head Chef for the Black Sheep restaurant on a full-time basis.  The Kendall Hotel and Black Sheep Restaurant are thrilled to have Dalu back!

When it comes to Cambridge food establishments, there are many options; the trendy, the tasteful, the traditional, and the conventional chefs – then there is Dalu, a true food artist.

Watching Dalu create in the kitchen is like watching a master artist complete his Mona Lisa.  Dalu’s soups each contain a “secret” ingredient; molasses in the Firehouse Chili and gin in her award winning Clam Chowder. She makes a simple from scratch Chicken Pot Pie with outstanding rich flavors – a five star dish!  Dalu also creates some special menu items like her wonderful gluten-free cheese rolls, which have soft centers and golden-brown exteriors.  Dense, warm, and chewy, they’re made with tapioca flour.

Dalu’s food is all American; fresh, honest and lots of it.  Her insistence on quality is apparent in all aspects of her kitchen including her daily trips to the fish and produce markets to personally choose the best product available.  Dalu demands perfection and nothing less is delivered to her tables.  And no skimpy portions are delivered either!

The Black Sheep Restaurant, located in lobby of the historic Kendall Hotel, is the classic dining destination from the Forsythe – Fandetti collection – where simple hearty American fare is thoughtfully presented, and where friends gather to dine, drink and converse.  For more information please contact us or make a reservation today!

Briar owns and runs Willowdale Estate, an elegant event venue in Topsfield, Mass. She’s also the consultant for the Black Sheep restaurant here at the Kendall Hotel, the culinary artist who develops our recipes, including our homemade breakfast scones, Boston cream pies, delicious soups, and our renowned Firehouse Chili.

Ipswich, as you may know, is famous for its seafood, especially its clam “chowda” (as it’s pronounced locally). The Chowderfest, sponsored by the Ipswich Lions Club, draws hundreds of connoisseurs from the North Shore and beyond to sample and judge the cream of the crop of chowders from local restaurants and chefs, with proceeds going to local charities. To stand out from this distinguished field is quite an accomplishment!

We’re now featuring Briar’s award-winning chowder at the Black Sheep restaurant as part of our seasonally inspired menu of classic and innovative American home-style cooking. If you’re dining with us for lunch or dinner, give this delectable soup a try – and discover what all the fuss is about!
