Their wonton soup is a good alternative to the sweet soups. $1.75 gets you a huge bowl of soup that serves about five people. (One thing to watch at Shanghai--the menu doesn't indicate how many servings you get from each item, so ask.) Mostly clear broth, the soup contains a generous number of wontons and some big leafy spinach. The wontons were a little skimpy on the meat filling, but on the whole were very tasty...
...Beer, brewed from Idaho potatoes. Devo (Are We Not Men?) likes spuds, (they play a unique brand of "spud rock"), and so, obviously, does a new and soon-to-be-famous group that is coming to Boston soon. Their name: Spud City. I guess they know what spuds are. Watch them bake at Who's on First tomorrow night, a club without a phone number or any publicized address. Getting there will be half...

Bleah. That's Woody Allen trying to be arty. All that Freudian bullshit.... I like the guy, he's genius and all that, but he tried...
DEWITT: Well I don't do it, but I like to watch it. I'm a voyeur. Hitchcock, DePalma, Scorcese's Taxi Driver. They keep me out of trouble. It's a crazy world, y'know Chaim? A crazy world. What else is this week? The Third Man. A thrilling Carol Reed movie, with those magnificent camera angles out of German expressionism and Orson Welles's Harry Lime, a slippery, outrageous performance by one of our greatest filmmakers. Touch of Evil is also in town. Best first and last scene in film history. Am I boring...
