As many people know, I am a big fan of comfort food. There's something about grabbing a burger or a dish of macaroni and cheese in a cozy (or not-so-cozy!) little restaurant that really makes me happy. Of course, there are hundreds of places in the Boston area that serve comfort food. So which are the best? Below are some of my favorite individual dishes from specific restaurants:

Zon's, Jamaica Plain
