...kind of scary and oily. But as most anyone who has ever ventured out to eat in Harvard Square and has landed at the door of old reliable Bertucci’s knows, the pasta dishes are good, though, with generous portions. I’m worried that our waitress will be annoyed when we tell her that we want to pay with Crimson Cash and we want to divide the check between separate Harvard ID cards, but she takes it in stride.

...waitress, a sweet and somewhat scattered twenty-something who, like the restaurant itself, was clearly new to the business but trying hard, had suggested what the menu called “lightly deep fried mashed boiled pumpkin” next. Difficult as this was to resist, we asked if she could bring some miso soup instead. The waitress argued against it—“miso doesn’t come with your meal.” We replied that we had no problem with paying for it. “Ok,” she said reluctantly. Let?...
