Seek out stellar sushi between grocery aisles
Iknow, I know -- the last time I mentioned sushi in this column I added the words "enough already." But that wasn't because I don't like sushi. Actually, I love sushi. I also feel virtuous when eating sushi, convincing myself that, not only do they make for saner eating than ...

Familiar name, but menu from another world
Harman's? my friends (who aren't up on these things) ask. You mean the drugstore? And of course I didn't mean the drugstore with that lunch counter of blessed memory. It vanished years ago, along with its waitresses -- those paragons of efficiency who took orders without ever taking notes and never getting any of them wrong.
