Upscale? UPSCALE? I am definitely not an upscale type of person. In Manhattan, my favorite place to eat is at one of those guys with the umbrella-covered wagons who sell hot dogs and knishes.
When I am visiting the South, you can't keep me away from a Waffle House.
(True, twice so far
Cholula has taken me to the Morton's Steak House in Boca, but I only agreed to go because he wasn't aware of the culinary delights available at Dunkin' Donuts.)

Drop me a line if you have time and we'll buy you a drink.
That sounds like a great idea and I will definitely do it. I will schedule it for the 28th as a friend is driving down to have lunch with me on the 27th.
Are there any particularly interesting neighborhoods to walk around in Boston? (I should probably exclude Cambridge as I don't like the idea of slumming in areas which have inferior schools.)
I might also be interested in buying fine men's clothing if you know a place which carries Princeton sweatshirts.

Let's work that out on the Community Buzz thread, but the night of the 26th looks good for me.
Blumie, I don't think I would be allowed into any bar which caters to the younger crowd. In fact, bars which cater to the Ancient and Decrepit Crowd are already starting to tell me I am too old to enter.
