...dining hall staff: Though the food at Harvard may not be as good (UCLA served different food in each of its dining halls, had a wood-brick oven to bake pizza in, and a dessert selection that would challenge any Parisian bakery), I am thankful for those who cook and serve our meals each day. I think the only other people who have ever cared so much about making me happy were my parents, and they probably felt obligated to because I’m related by blood...
...restaurants serving inventive, often experimental cuisine: places like Arzak, a three-star Michelin legend, and in the countryside, Etxebarri, where chef Victor Arguinzoniz takes such pride in his grilled meats and fishes that he bakes his own charcoal out of different tree branches every morning in an oxygen-controlled oven. At the Guggenheim in Bilbao, a prodigy named Josean Martínez Alija, 27, is winning accolades for dishes like roasted tomatoes stuffed with baby squid and candied cod in garlic oil. Most famously, there is Ferrán Adrià of El Bulli, two hours north of Barcelona in the seaside town...

...Parade is not merely a new incarnation of the Arcade Fire, as their performance at TT the Bear’s last Thursday showed. For those unacquainted with the Central Square locale, TT’s was designed by Maytag as the world’s most efficient toaster oven. Its sweltering smallness makes it a good concert venue by other measures, though; you can pretty much see the band from anywhere, and it’s hard not to feel the energy of a performance, if only from a strange man grinding his chest against your back while...
