Thanks to our partners: MAYOR THOMAS M. MENINO &

Mayor’s Office of Arts, Tourism & Special Events AUTUMNAL EATS There’s a chill in the air and now is the perfect time to savor the unique flavors of fall. A steaming bowl of warm soup is one of the best ways to get in the spirit of the season, and Avila Modern Mediterranean (1 Charles St. South, 617-267-4810) currently has two offerings on its menu that are well worth the trip. Order the pumpkin soup (pictured above) and savor the taste of puréed pumpkin with leeks, tangy Granny Smith apples, a hint of vanilla and a splash of aged balsamic vinegar. Or for a slightly sweeter spoonful, try the winter squash soup sprinkled with candied pecans. Whichever choice tempts your taste buds, both soups are enticing ways to warm up this season. —Paul Adler

What Boston’s buzzing about 10.29.12 NOTHING BUT NET The parquet floor at the TD Garden (100 Legends Way, 617-624-1050) is calling, and our favorite team in green plays its first home game of the regular season on Friday, November 2. Catch Rajon Rondo, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce (pictured) and the whole Boston Celtics crew heating up the court as they take on their Midwestern nemesis of the evening, the Milwaukee Bucks. From sinking three-pointers to driving towards the hoop for a dunk, the showcase of basketball talent from Doc Rivers’ team is sure to be spectacular. Tip-off is at 7:30 p.m., so snag some seats to get in on the action or check the schedule for upcoming games against the Washington Wizards and Philadelphia 76ers. Personally, we hope the game is a layup. —Elizabeth Stanek

6 Panorama Hubbub LET IT SNOW Whether you’re a serious racer, master of moguls or even a snow bunny most skilled in making hot cocoa, we’ve got the event for you. Not only is ski season right around the corner, but so is the 31st annual Boston.com Ski & Snowboard Expo, taking place at the Seaport World Trade Center (200 Seaport Blvd., 617-385- 4000) from November 8–11. In this winter wonderland of sales on sporting apparel, accessories and equipment from East Coast Alpine and Eastern Boarder, also find specials on lift tickets and season passes, plus incredible resort vacation packages. While little ones play at the Stowe Kids SnowPark Learning Center, older outdoorsmen should swing by the Long Trail Brewing Sliders Saloon. Also, meet and greet gold medal Olympian Hannah Kearney—she chills out at the Waterville Valley booth on Friday evening and Saturday morning. —Elizabeth Stanek

MICE AND MEN Though Halloween treats are a dime a dozen these days, Bostonians with a sweet tooth agree that L.A. Burdick (220 Clarendon St., 617-303-0113) is one of the best chocolate shops around. While its handcrafted chocolate bars and rich hot cocoa are particularly popular picks, we’re head over heels for its cute and delicious chocolate mice. Piped and decorated by hand, these gourmet goodies come in three tempting flavors. The dark chocolate mice are paired with a whipped orange filling, the milk chocolate have a mocha interior and the white chocolate contain an irresistible cinnamon and port- flavored cream. With almond ears, carefully detailed eyes, and whimsical silk tails, these mice make quite a presentation in a gift box as well as on the palate. —Paul Adler

SUNDAY BLUES Need an elixir for that sinking feeling that comes on when Monday morning looms? Cap off your weekend by swinging byThe Beehive (541 Tremont St., 617-423-0069) for Blues on Sunday. At this subterranean Bohemian hangout, weekly worries float away on the soulful notes played by the all-star house blues band Bruce Bears & Friends. Get your groove on with a mug of Beehive Honey Brew, absorb the artsy atmosphere and indulge in comfort food like the short rib, farmhouse cheddar and fontina grilled cheese. Sunday nights just got a little more funky. —Elizabeth Stanek
