Beantown C-town Gate-

Wei and I drove up to Boston this past weekend. One of her college friends was getting married and since this is a couple we actually like, we decided to take the 5 hour drive. A quick word about the wedding. Cash bar. Enough said. But the weekend wasn't a total loss. We didn't have much time for sight seeing but we really didn't care. We had already been to Boston last year and since it is a very compact city we were able to traipse 90% of it in less than a weekends time . What I did have my eye on this time around was hitting up Chinatown....again.....of course! And we hit it. Above is my
Beantown C-town haul. 27
HK flicks for 86 bucks. I bought a bunch of films I already had. Some in different formats and others from different distributors. You can't really go wrong buying doubles, triples, or quadruples of titles like
DR. LAMB,
TWIST,
I LOVE MARIA and
POM POM AND HOT HOT for $2 a piece. Didn't really take many pics this time around
bc we went nutty like Japanese tourists during last years visit. And C-town hadn't changed a lick. So, below I posted a few pics from this years and last years trip to Boston's C-town. It's a very small Chinatown in comparison to the other's I have visited but if you ever find yourself in the area, it's worth a quick walkabout.
DVD/VCD/souvenir shop. Saw bootlegs of TRIPLE TAP and SHANGHAI here.-
DVD/VCD/Souvenir shop. Nice selection of older HK titles.-
Yes. This place sells HK movies AND aquariums!? Sadly, more fish than films.-
Hello! Who is it?

Tyler St., Boston Chinatown-
No offense to your fiance's friends but a cash bar is just not acceptable at a wedding. Booze should be free and flowing.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Boston has more of a Chinatown than D.C. has.
I agree Glenn. A cash bar is a definite no no. It really took the wind out of my sails. i didn't want to be there in the first place and the cash bar thing almost sent me overboard. (excuse the nautical references)
