Haitian Relief hits home
I've always liked Burtons Grill. Now I know why. They've got the mind of a well-oiled chain and the heart of a family franchise. Tonight all three locations (North Andover, Boston and Hingham) will donate 15 percent of the day's proceeds to Bill Clinton's Haitian relief fund.

Regardless of what you think of Slick Willy, at least his fund is not fake. I can't think of a better reason to schlep outside on a classic January day, a Monday no less. Think thick, juicy burgers and helping out a decimated population in one fell swoop. On Sunday La Boniche in Lowell does its part to spread the hope. The uptown French bistro goes tropical with an Afro-Cuban/Caribbean buffet, live music and education from 3 to 5 p.m. For $20, or $30 (per deuce) you can splurge and imbibe with pride. Any other restaurants following in George Clooney's footsteps this week?
