...sushi in the immediate Harvard area. Miso soup comes at $.99 a bowl, and each piece of sashimi is $.99 as well. One reason for the low prices may be that some of the fish arrives flash-frozen, a state deemed unacceptable at pricier restaurants. The tuna, salmon, and halibut are ordered straight from Boston, while the yellowtail, octopus, squid, flying fish roe and eel are all imported from Japan. The rolls are made fresh to order behind the counter. The fish’s texture is slightly tougher, but the taste is reliably pure. Kotobukiya...
...well worth the trip. Spear's cooking, which draws foodies from across Britain, is deceptively simple, starting with appetizers like langoustine salad and partan bree (crab soup), both made from meltingly sweet local shellfish.

"Testa brings a depth you don't get by using the biggest, best cut of meat," Batali says. Two, as he says in his new show, Mario Eats Italy--shot on location in the motherland--Batali believes that the true basis of a lot of Italian cooking is poverty. Those who can't afford much don't waste something as precious as pig lips. Three, Batali thinks it's funny to serve headcheese for 10 bucks...
...Friday, confounding staff members who believed they had over a year more to raise circulation from around 540,000 to the estimated 700,000 to 800,000 that Details needed to be viable. Says just hired editor Kendall Hamilton: "It was a smack in the head with a halibut...
