This restaurant is very similar to Stefani's located on Main Street and the two may be affiliated for all I know, but they are definitely not the same. For one thing, here they put the tomato sauce inside the calzone with the cheese. I'm not a fan. Other than that, the food here is fine. I've been in the restaurant and it's a nice place to eat, on a very pleasant street. There are a bunch of awards on the wall, and I don't think they're undeserved. I prefer Stefani's-on-Main-Street, but hey, I'm just brand-loyal like that.

Not My Style

I know some people really love this place, and I know it has a bunch of vegetarian and vegan options. Personally, I find it hard to find something on the menu here that I feel like eating. It's nothing that's wrong with the food, exactly, it's just not my style. Even the smoothies aren't flavors I'm into. I admit, I groan whenever someone suggests we go eat there. Maybe it's just my die-hard bland-palate-ed ways.

**edit: this restaurant has CLOSED -11/25/07**
Paris Creperie is a real nice place to eat and it's a *great* place to hang out. It's located right across the street from MGH, probably a two minute walk from the Charles/MGH Red Line stop.
They serve smoothies (including Nutella flavor!) and a wide variety of crepes: breakfast crepes, dessert crepes, full-meal style crepes with meat and cheese and veggies... my personal favorite is the pizza crepe which costs less than $5.
It's really the small touches that make Paris Creperie a personal favorite. They've got a pitcher of water to which you can help yourself, a giant basket of free newspapers to peruse, good music and friendly employees. Highly worth visiting.

A lot of college freshman discover Dollar a Pound. Shortly thereafter, a lot of college freshman discover "My Closet is Only So Big and I Will Never Ever (Ever) Wear These Plaid Overalls (No, Really)."
Dollar a Pound is one of the purest expressions I know of the principle of trading time for money. The clothes are literally spread out on the floor. The quality is highly varied. There are no changing rooms. If you enjoy that kind of thing (and hey, I do), you'll love it. Otherwise, maybe not so much.
p.s. don't forget the potential for buying clothes for the fabric - it's really a great bargain.

I love Tello's so much. The clothes are sometimes ridiculous and they run very very small but they're usually very cute and the prices are hard to argue with, *especially* once you start poking around on the clearance racks. Diligence is rewarded, on that front. The best dress I bought all year cost me $7 off the clearance rack. On the flip side, you get what you pay for to some extent. This stuff falls apart pretty fast. Then again, it's so trendy you might feel weird wearing it in a year anyway. The shoes, though, the shoes are fantastic and good quality, too.
This location is a little smaller than some of the others and it doesn't have the same selection. This is most noticed in the plus sizes section. Still, it's in Central Square, so if I'm passing by I'll often pop in for a bit.
