Best of the New: Food
Boston Globe

GOOD FOR YOU IN A YEAR WHEN AMERICANS' WAISTLINES CONTINUED TO EXPAND, THE BOSTON AREA SAW THE WELCOME ADDITION OF FOUR HEALTHY-FOOD BUSINESSES.

Cousin Oliver, who lends his name to a 456-calorie burger topped with lettuce, tomato, red onion, dill pickle, and a "secret sauce" at b.good, would be proud. The Harvard Square location - the second outpost of this healthy fast-food eatery - opened in November in a place that could use a few more cheap, fast eats. With 30 seats, exposed brick walls, and free wireless access, this could become a very popular hangout. Guilt-free Caesar salads and shakes complement the burgers, but the oven-baked fries make any study break worthwhile. More vegetarian offerings and later hours make b.good a great fit for the Cambridge college scene.
