A must try for anyone in the area.
MARY CHUNG | 464 MASSACHUSETTS AVE
This old-school, authentic, cash-only Chinese mainstay in Central Square specializes in spicy Sichuan plates. The menu is quite extensive so you’ll have to dig a little to find the gems. If you go, try the Suan La Chow Show, a spicy dumpling dish that’s nearly impossible to find anywhere else.
GREEK CORNER | 2366 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE
Since 1989, this low-key family-run spot has been providing classic Greek eats to East Cambridge. The restaurant is great for taking out or eating in, with gorgeous murals adorning the walls and a welcoming, homey environment. In a rush? Grab a Corner’s special gyro – ground beef and lamb seasoned with herbs and spices and served in hot pita bread with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, parsley and cucumber yogurt sauce. Yum.
