So what should Mao have for lunch?
Now that I've rejoined the workforce, I get long lunchbreaks (not that long actually, but enough). So, I work in the downtown area, what goods should I be eating for lunch? I usually go around the neighborhood, there are plenty of pizza/sub places around here. Anyone know Boston and have any unique suggestions? Or any at all?

Au Bon Pain. You shouldn't have any trouble finding one there. There are about 15 in Cambridge.

Au Bon Pain is crap compared to the other options you have, being in Boston. Just go to little italy and choose one at random - you can't go wrong!

I thought we did. There must have been a miscommunication somewhere.

Well, I only have an hour for lunch, so I can't really go all the way to the North End for Italian food...

A sandwich you packed for lunch. You'll save money from not eating out.

This is true, but I have very little time to pack sandwiches, and usually go out with my friends anyway.
Chinese eh? I'm very close to Chinatown, but not close enough that I can go and sit down to eat and be back in time. ...maybe cheap takeout? But it usually disagrees with me afterwards...

Cheap takeout usually is usually, eh, quite cheap. I don't know what you eat, but one hour seems to be lots of time. Just don't go for the dim sums, grab one of those set meals (e.g. rice with BBQ pork, fried rice noodles with beef, etc.)

erm...hmmm...I work at State Street...it's the building with the big State Street on top of it...if that's a landmark. I'm about 10 minutes away from Macy's, Filene's, etc. downtown and about 10-15 from Chinatown. Not quite sure what landmarks are around here...never bothered to check...

Yes, eat, eat, eat...but darn it, man...don't forget Mrs. Jack's Palace...or should I say the Gardner Museum?! If you go to Boston without dropping in...well, I can't answer for the consequences...
(i.e. Looking back on it and saying "Darn! Why did I miss that?")

I don't know your particular area of town too well, so my suggestion is to start building some restaraunt knowledge, sampling what's in the area, finding what has good deals and such. Take charge of your life, man!
