...martinis, such as the Arabic Coffee Martini with Stolichnaya Vanil, splashes of Kahlua and Frangelico and a shot of Arabic Coffee; and the Moonlight Martini, a concoction of Bombay Sapphire with Parfait Amour, fresh lemon and a splash of Yellow Chartreuse. Under the guidance of our chipper, black-clad server, we took a bottle of Taurino Notarpanaro, a versatile and smooth Italian red that complemented our adventurous appetite for variety. Alas, as a reminder that we were in Cambridge and not Europe or the actual Middle East, our server dutifully asked us for proper age identification upon ordering alcohol...
...result of the westward spread of Near East influences. We started with a seared salmon, topped with a layer of phyllo pastry. While the salmon was somewhat dry and salty, the accompanying tabouli was delicious when spread over pita bread. We also tried the grape leaves, which our server raved were the best in the area.

...awry. Taiwan's Acer, for example, was once a well-known computer brand, but the company has faded from prominence and struggled to make a profit despite forays into fields such as semiconductor manufacturing. By entering unfamiliar territory, Legend risks losing focus where it truly matters-PC and server sales contribute 93% of Legend's revenues. At least one industry analyst says the company's strategy has become so diffuse he no longer understands...
