As promised, I have tried to cover some aspects of life outside of classes. Below are some of the places where we MLOGgers usually hang out.
Boston has a great nightlife scene, which we get a chance to explore every now and then. It’s only a few stops away from Cambridge on the “T” and we still keep wondering why we always default to the Asgard (a local Cambridge bar). I guess its got the “Cheers” effect.
Harvard Square is also a train stop away and offers numerous restaurants and coffee shops. It’s a great place to get a nice meal or watch some talented street performances on the weekends. If you are into Chess, I would highly recommend playing the Chessmaster, who is usually at Au Bon Pain on the weekends.
Central Square in my opinion offers a limited but fairly diverse set of options with cuisines ranging from Indian to Ethiopian. It is also the closest option to the graduate dorms (Warehouse, Sidney Pacific, Edgerton) and hence we land up there pretty often. And of course then there is the “Warehouse” dorm which is a great place to test your pool and ping pong skills. It has also been a great way to meet other students at MIT.
