A DELICIOUS PLACE TO HOWL

It’s the end of October, which means only one thing- it’s time for the Mardi Gras-themed Pumpkin Bash at the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge!

Backed by the legendary Vudu Krewe, long-time music scene stalwart Shaun “Wolf” Wortis will jam along with other local legends at a charity-minded, costume-optional hootenanny that is sure to be a great take!

If you want to make it an EXTRA great night, reserve a table upstairs at Cambridge Common.

Combining upscale pub food with international flair and one of the best beer and drink lists around, the Common is a great place to grab a bite before a show or during a game or to meet and make friends while reading books about the Ivy League (Might I suggest lionstigersbulldogs.com?).

The Common is known for such amazing apps as fried pickles and pretzel bites, for their brunch favorite French toast sticks, and for offering both buffalo wings and tofu strips so even those who eschew meet can get in on the tasty fun! They also offer great beef and veggie burgers that call out to be combined with their award-winning sweet potato fries and a grilled cheese and tomato soup combo that is just right for this time of year. Their mac & cheese is rich and gooey and their fajitas sizzle with south of the border sabor. They even have healthy and flavor-packed bowls with everything from chicken to salmon to tofu!

To toast Wolf for his latest musical triumph, try a Barewolf Launchpad McQuack Red Ale, a Charles River Porter, or any of the other rare and special edition brews that the Common regularly rotates into their arsenal. On the way down to the show, see if you can find a review I wrote at the Lounge over 20 years ago. I will be there waiting!
