I had my head in Food, and did little else in Boston. We ate out regularly, paid for by the restaurant and written off as R and D. I got room and board, plus a mere pittance in pay, but I wanted for little. I didn't have time! My fave restaurant was Durgin Park, closed now. That place was a trip.
Where are you now?
I remember having oysters and some famous sandwiches in Boston. But a brief experience is different from having to live there, so it looks like working at the restaurant had its pluses.
I'm in Vancouver now. Wackiest place in Canada. :)
The joke around here is that when they tipped Canada, all the nuts rolled to Vancouver. That should tell you everything you need to know about our sanity around here, but I do try to balance some things out :D
