While customers ponder the extensive menu, which is five jam-packed pages long and appropriates the entire lower third of the front window, the waitstaff serves them tea from an ornate porcelain pitcher...
Unfortunately, the couple sitting in front of me missed the Gloria Gainer tribute because they took their young children home after Act I, due, as I overheard, to the show's "inappropriateness."

But the availability of House-based activities is wildly inconsistent across the Houses, and there certainly isn't any spirit or rivalry in the House system itself. Cabot residents may be very enthusiastic about...
