Cambridge Tips
The Coop Harvard's bookstore/store is worth taking a hike to, you can get trinkets to say you want to Havard even if you didn't. The book store is interesting just for the whole "coop or cooperative concept.
The best bookstore is Wordsworth, several years back ran into some W3C heavies among the stacks.
Take curry to the little gourmet store next to the "news stand". It's the only place in town when you can get the spices for Indonesian food.
Speaking of news stands, check out the one above the T in Havard Sq. And don't forget to the a Manchester Union Leader, when you see this paper you'll wonder how anything ever gets done in cow hampshire, also known as new hampster.
You can also on Sunday get the Ny, DC and LA papers here.
Food treats not to be missed:
1. The Summer Shack next to the Hyatt, Jasper White's seafood place. Better than legal.
2. The chinese resturant in the Hyatt, it's the best in Boston, Sally lings. Take Dave here. The shanghi noodles are great.
3. Twenty Chimenys, this is the almost 24/7 cafeteria at MIT. The burgers here are cheap and very good. Even though I was at Emerson across the river, we used to eat here on mass on weekends.
4. The open are market back of Fanueil Hall. This is the place for fresh produce Saturday mornings.
5. The bar at the Bostonian hotel. Pricey drinks at Fanueil Hall.
Many a deal cut here in the RKO days
6. The bar at the Hyatt, this one will make you throw up as its in motion at the top of the Hyatt.
7. Legal just for the Choda hey.
Hope you have a wicked good time.
