Just as roasting chestnuts smell a lot better than they taste, most of the menu at the new Z Square café is similarly deceptive. The café, which is the quicker, less expensive version of the Z Square restaurant and bar located in the basement, is a puzzling hybrid of Martha Stewart and Harvard Square. A number of curious white heat lamps, looking like they got lost on their way to a nail salon, hang from the ceiling over plates of hot food.

"The problem is wrong," he later elaborates, "so all the logic and discipline lead you in the wrong direction," namely, toward price sensitivity. Hybrid technology looks better when gas is $5 per gal. than when it is $3. But that's beside the point, says Grove. What's at stake is national security and control of our own economy...
