Though the food is unexciting, it’s reliably appetizing. More importantly, however, Sunset Grill and Tap has over 100 beers on tap. Grab your rowdiest, ale-loving buds, pile into a couple cabs and head over to this Allston hotspot. There’s no need for a special reason—you can raise a stein to anything from world peace to simply the completion of another week...
...realized that the interior here was everything I had always hoped Grafton could be. I could see behind me! The bar was sleek and clean. Amazing.

Initially, candidate Sofi abided by the Hurriyat's call to boycott, deciding not to run from his constituency in the Kupwara district, a former rebel hotspot. But he relented. "One man came to me and said he would kill his four sons if I did not take part as there was no point going on like this," says Sofi. So he quit the alliance last month to run as an independent. "The Hurriyat is right that the elections don't address the core issue of Kashmir's status," admits...
