Boston to New York — and anywhere worth driving for in between. Every plate gets the verdict, the pin, and the honest review.

Hi, I'm Mike.
I eat for
a living.

My name is Michael Petrigno. I was born August 7th, 1995 and raised in Revere, MA. But also grew up in the North End three days a week on the days I was with my father. I grew up in an Italian family. And if you know about Italian culture, you'd know food is the biggest part of it next to family. I developed a love for eating since I was a young boy. Whatever was put in front of me I didn't hesitate to dig into it. My mother certainly didn't have to call me in off the street for dinner more than once. Between my mother always cooking, and my father's Sicilian mother cooking, I always had a delicious homemade meal waiting for me at dinner time. And I don't take that for granted either. Not everyone was fortunate to have that. Going out for dinner wasn't something that happened too often. If we did dine out, it was Italian or maybe Chinese food. Maybe a steakhouse. We weren't going to all different ethnic restaurants like you see me doing today.
