Food in Greater Boston

This list of eating options in Greater Boston started out as a list I made for a group of out-of-town visitors (the 2004 convention of the National Puzzlers League). Once I setup a wiki for myself, I decided to migrate it to here. I decided to drop directions, address, phone, etc., since you can find these online easily.
