...with enough salad bar, quichey places around for each and every hungry yuppie. And, if you desire sandwiches or soup and salad for dinner, you'll be happy with most of these places (in no particular order) as well: The Garage (at the corner of Dunster and Mt. Auburn Sts.) provides the highest concentration of healthy eating spots in the Square including: Formaggio, which is famous for its huge fresh bread sandwiches, especially its turkey or roast beef and boursin; Stuff It's, with its sahara bread "stogies," with lettuce, tomatoes and cheese and options ranging from turkey or roast...
Other Square institutions you shouldn't miss are Elsie's (71 Mt.

Tommy's Lunch: Tommy Stefanian has had a Harvard institution on Mt. Auburn St. between Plympton and DeWolfe Sts. for more than 25 years. As other food emporiums come and go, Tommy's remains. The crowd there can vary (and usually does) from Crimson and Lampoon editors, to Quincy and Lowell House partiers, to video game players, to smokers who just love to get yelled at for putting their feet on the furniture (a grave no-no at Tommy's). No smoking while playing Ms. Pac-Man, but good cheesesteaks and thick frappes (that's a milkshake in Bostonese). Tommy...
