For another, the price of food in grocery stores probably equals what you'd spend going out to eat. We're not saying that you should abandon your beachfront abode in Truro and race into Beantown, but if you're here - stuck, live here, on vacation going up and down the Bunker Hill Monument for no good reason - take advantage of restaurants you might be hesitant to try because of the usual prices (or whatever) and remember they all have air-conditioning. Where to go? There are so many choices - Azure, Davio's (in photo) Top of the Hub, L'Espalier, etc. - we're just going to have to refer you to the website below, where you can click through and get menu and direction info.

My wife and I took advantage of Restaurant Week at the Beehive on Monday. Exquisite, affordable, great jazz music at just the right volume level.
