Wisteria House

Apparently a modest Chinese-American room (plus sidewalk tables) along Newbury Street, Wisteria House has a secret life as a taste of home for Taiwanese students and immigrants. For a taste of Taiwan, don't miss the pipa tofu (fried clouds flavored with shrimp), clams, or squid triple delights with basil, or stewed pig's ear -- gelatinous but delicious, no kidding.

Full review.

Price range for entrées: $7 - $16.
