Phantom Gourmet: Trina's Starlite Lounge

BOSTON (CBS) - Chicken and Waffles dripping with hot pepper syrup, old school mac and cheese topped with Ritz crackers, and a burger piled high with just about everything.

There's only one place serving up food that looks and tastes that good: Trina's Starlite Lounge, located on the Cambridge-Somerville line.

This laid-back neighborhood hangout specializes in soul-satisfying comfort food, and hand-crafted cocktails, at pocket friendly prices.

Entrees cost around $15, but lots of customers just order a bucket of beers, and snack on small plates like homemade barbecue sweet potato chips with French onion dip, fresh baked cornbread topped with sweet honey butter and thick-cut fries that can be ordered plain, topped with chili, or smothered with rich meaty gravy.

For more food and fun, watch the Phantom Gourmet every Saturday and Sunday at 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. on myTV 38.
