While I recently raved about the long-lasting literarily-linked legend that is Harvard Square’s Grendel’s, I am just as excited to go back to the Square to check out its new sibling site, the Sea Hag.

In addition to the Commonwealth Kitchen Food Show October 5 and the Harvest Party at Boston Public Market October 12, there is also the Boston Vegetarian Society’s Veg Food Fest on October 14 and 15 at the
