facts which you may or may not have known before, but now you do

The menu item for the cheese fondue at Grendel's reads "Serves two." This is incorrect. There appears to be a printing blemish on each and every menu. Upon removing the blemish, the menu clearly states "Serves two armies."

Holy cats. Six of us could not even finish the beast, which was served in crockery the size of one's head. That's not to say we did our damndest, though, because the stuff was very delicious and quite filling. But we left a whole lot behind, and now I reckon I won't need to eat until the end of the month.

Yes, Virginia, there is such a thing as too much cheese, no matter what Wisconsin tries to tell you.

Wow, I'd completely forgotten Grendel's still exists. (When I was last eating there regularly I don't think I could even afford the cheese fondue.) Is the salad bar still comprehensive?

There is no salad bar any more, unfortunately. They are only the basement -- the part that USED to be the main floor is now Upstairs at the Square, which used to be Upstairs at the Pudding, until Harvard kicked them out of the building with the Hasty Pudding club.

However -- they've got craft-brewed beer for, like, $3.75/pint.

And they have bottles of 'gansett (hiya, neighbah) as well. Hray!
