Vericon: This weekend at Harvard University!

Well that certainly is a pleasant surprise. I can have two people sign my HTMW book now. Have you ever been to Boston/Cambridge before?

I was in Boston for First Night well over six years ago. I haven't gotten the chance to get back, though. I remember having a phenomenal bowl of clam chowder at the Black Rose Cafe, but it looks like a haul from Sever Hall. Any thoughts on where to get good clam chowder (or, dare I dream, a lobster roll sans mayo?)

Unfortunately, the only place I have eaten at in that area is the Summer Shack and that was over five years ago. You also might try the East Coast Grill but the only reason why I know that place is a Travel Channel special that covered its Halloween event of providing the hottest menu on the face of the earth. You can try searching here:

The phantom gourmet is a pretty well known food critic even though his identity is a mystery. I can recommend Four Burgers though which from the title is a hamburger joint. If you like pizza Crazy Dough's is a really good and unique pizza joint right in that area.
